At one point they had the great grandmother stand outside in her nightgown. According to their warrant, officers were looking for records including applications for ballot by mail, a list of voter banks and documents about elected officials and candidates. Martina said the officers told her they were there because she filled out a report saying older residents were not getting mail ballots. That is quite an aggressive response to that report, which she confirms she did file.
