Mr. Martinez remains in custody on $50,000 bond. Per the Sun-Sentinel, he and another unknown man went into a home on the far west end of West Sandalfoot (Watergate Estates aka the Sandalfoot Trailers) and attacked a cancer patient, holding a knife to the victim’s throat and stealing his morphine.
Martinez had a case in Palm Beach County only two months ago with felony drug charges, which was dropped by prosecutors. In 2013 he had a misdemeanor In 2008 he had a felony robbery case which was resolved with a plea of guilty and time served (we’re not sure how much time, but it was much less than a year).
