The truth, though still tragic, is a little more typical. Michelle Martinez (AKA Miguel Martinez) was visiting the home of a family friend in Casper, WY, back in March 2017. Martinez invited the 10-year-old girl into the bathroom of the family's home. Martinez then fondled the girl and penetrated the child.
The child immediately told her mother, who reported the assault to the police. She was taken to a nearby medical center, where they found physical evidence of the sexual assault.
Martinez denied that the assault happened, saying that the girl was "talking crap" and claimed that the accusations were a "publicity stunt." Martinez was also drunk that night and had a blood alcohol level of .218.
Last week, Martinez was found guilty last week of first- and second-degree-sexual assault of a minor and faces up to 70 years in prison.
