AS HIS PRACTICE GASPED FOR SURVIVAL, PERRY Nelson was in a desperate search for ways to save money. The rent on his office space in downtown Trinidad was not outlandish, but when he saw space for rent on Country Club Drive that cost less money than what he was paying, he jumped on it. The owner of the medical building was chiropractor Terry Mitchell. The space was nice, albeit smaller than what he had been used to over the years. It also needed to be remodeled and finished up, but Perry said he’d take it. The reason? The rent was a paltry $35 a month.
Dr. Mitchell liked Perry from the first day they first met to discuss the rental. He was outgoing, friendly and enthusiastic. He had plans for the office space. If he was down on his luck, he didn’t complain about it much. When he consummated a deal, which culminated in the sale of what was left of his Rocky Ford practice, Dr. Mitchell loaned Perry a truck to move his equipment to Trinidad.
From the beginning it was clear the Nelson finances were in shambles. Dr. Nelson was late on his rent and apologized profusely for requiring a couple of extra days to come up with what in better days would have been pocket change.
It wasn’t hard to see why Nelson was in financial quicksand. Dr. Mitchell and his wife Kay, who worked in his office, could see the reasons for all the problems. It was Sharon. Sharon. Sharon.
"She got him in over his head with the house, with the cars, with everything she wanted. Perry, for some reason, kept right on going along with her. Perry was the nicest, sweetest guy in the world. He never had a bad word for anyone. What he saw in that wife of his… poor old Perry," Terry Mitchell said later.
Trinidad was a town with more than its share of country bumpkins. Guys worked hard on the ranch or in the mines four days a week, getting so drunk on the fifth day they needed a long weekend to sleep it off. Their wives got together and talked about how many kids they had, how many more they wanted and what they could get from the shopper’s catalog if their men had just worked a little harder. Sharon wasn’t like that. She arrived on the scene with a different attitude; different interests. She came in and showed everything she had. She was the Vargas pinup for the rough-and-tumble Hee Haw set.
Terry Mitchell, for one, couldn’t stand her tarted-up attire and sleazier-than-thou attitude. The chiropractor scratched his head as he figured out what it was that attracted a normal, nice guy like Perry to a woman like Sharon. That something had to be sex. It sure wasn’t her personality. Her sparkling conversation. Her brains. Sharon showed everything she had to offer.
"She was the type of woman who would flash all the sexual stuff she had. She had the big boobs and round butt and she was swishing everything she had all over town.
