Deputy Sheriff Martinez was involved in a case where he disabled his lapel camera and attempted to destroy the video recording system in his squad car. Despite these actions, the sheriff’s office was able to recover a two-minute clip that became the basis of accusations against him. Martinez had only been with the sheriff’s office for three months at the time of the incident. Prior to joining the Cibola County Sheriff’s Office, he resigned from the state police and was later hired by the Hatch Police Department.
