This episode detail the December, 24th, 1904 killing of Justice of the Peace Lee Ginn in Macomb, Oklahoma Territory, by constables Wesley Yandell and Ben Mitchell, focusing on the conflicting accounts of self-defense versus premeditation. Newspapers significantly shaped public opinion, and the ensuing trial, though resulting in Mitchell's release on bond, left the ultimate verdicts unclear. Separate notes mention a later, unrelated mystery surrounding the death of Yandell, whose body was reportedly found in a train car, though its identification was disputed. The sources collectively explore themes of frontier justice, media influence, and the challenges of uncovering truth in historical cases.
