I wanted to go back and look at something historical to take a mental health break from some of the more intense cases. I have always been interested in what happened in Taos, New Mexico in the 1800s.The struggle between the US government and it's drive to own what is now New Mexico led to many bloody battles. This was a particularly intense one. Today we are discussing the Taos Revolt.
