About this Case:
Daniel Montoya died in an apparent garage fire in Rocky Ford. However, two days later, a homicide case was opened after an autopsy found Daniel Montoya had 'multiple sharp force injuries' and, 'chop injuries' to the back of his head, and three gunshot wounds. Months before his death, he had been accused of a sexual assault. After learning of this accusation, his niece, Brandy Montoya, and her husband, Emillio Baca 'followed Daniel Montoya around Rocky Ford in her vehicle and were thinking about harming him or running over him with her car,' according to tipsters. The two were arrested and charged in 2023, but no convictions have been made. If you know anything about this case, please contact Rocky Ford Police Department.
