Season of Terror The Espinosas in Central Colorado March-October 1863
by Charles F. Price
For eight months during the spring and fall of 1863, brothers Felipe Nerio and José Vivián Espinosa and their young nephew, José Vincente, New Mexico–born Hispanos, killed and mutilated an estimated thirty-two victims before their rampage came to a bloody end.
One of their victims, Henry Harken, was a friend and neighbor of the Priest family. Henry Priest is buried in the same small roadside plot where Henry Harken is buried on Hwy 115 just outside of Colorado Springs.
