Man killed two girlfriends in two weeks
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS


LONG BEACH, Calif. — A judge in Long Beach has sentenced a California man to death for murdering a girlfriend who refused to help him dispose of another girlfriend’s body.

Santiago Martinez of Long Beach was sentenced Tuesday in Superior Court to die by lethal injection

A jury last month recommended death for the 28-year-old Martinez, who was convicted for the 2003 killing of Myra Orozco. A previous jury deadlocked over the penalty.

Orozco, a 24-year-old Long Beach resident, was stabbed and slashed nearly 30 times, pushed from a car and run over.

Prosecutors say she was killed because she refused to help Martinez dump the body of a woman he had killed two weeks earlier.

Martinez already is serving 52 years to life for the murder of Christina Wilkerson, who was stabbed 20 times and shot.

When I hear stories like this I think back to the many lethal professions (e.g. girlfriend of guy who murders his girlfriends) that people engage in, e.g. Wife of Henry VIII or Emperor of Rome.

I can only wonder at how the first jury could have deadlocked.

Well, if you could survive as a Roman Emperor, the payoff was pretty good.

This girl... not nearly so much.

This guy doesn't take any chances. Failure is truly not an option.

You kbnow if she had done what he told her to do she would now be facing major jail time as an accomplice. American courts have traditionally turned a deaf ear to pleas from peolple who were forced to assist a criminal.

The grammar error in this thread title is driving me crazy.

It should be:

She should have gone done as she was told

No, no, no. It's; "She shoulda dun gone 'n did wha' she wus dun tol' ta."

I prefer the odds of acquittal or escape over the odds of coming back to life.
