Sheriff Oscar Martinez Jr. says his indictment should be dismissed because a special prosecutor unduly influenced a grand jury. The special prosecutor said he was overly fair to Martinez.
A warrant permits a comprehensive search of Sheriff Oscar Martinez s cellphone, which was seized Tuesday as part of an investigation into allegations of resisting law enforcement and reckless driving.
The state charges stem from a Sept. 18 incident in which Crown Point Police officers conducting a traffic stop at about 11:30 p.m. in the 9000 block of Taft Street saw a black SUV traveling northbound on Main Street “at what appeared to be at a speed well above the 45 mph posted limit.”
