The Oklahoma City police sergeant who was honored last year for selfless dedication to children sexually abused four teenage boys in his care, prosecutors alleged Friday in a 37-count criminal charge.
Maurice A. Martinez, 44, also violently struck one of those boys in the head, prosecutors alleged in the charge. Police reported finding a video of that blow on the officer's computer.
The veteran patrol officer is being held without bail in the Oklahoma County jail. Martinez has been under investigation since January when one teenager — an adopted son — told elders at his church he had been molested. FULL STORY
There are quite a few comments there from people who would like to give this foster-cop the benefit of the doubt. Odd, I think. In other stories around the country involving REAL PARENTS alleged of doing far less than this, the commenters are just plain out for blood.
