Sarah McKinley defended herself and her new baby by shooting and killing 24 year old Justin Martin on New Year’s Eve. Now KRMG has obtained a statement that Martin's family sent in email form. Read that statement below.
Our family is working through this as best we can. We don't have many details about how and why this happened, but we do know that much of the speculation and rumors are not consistent with the Justin his many friends, family and community knew him to be. We believe that as the police work through this, a truer picture of Justin will be painted, and we'll be able to grieve in peace. This is a terrible ordeal for everyone involved, and we're praying for everyone dealing with the aftermath.
- The family of Justin Martin
A group called Next Media created an animation recreating the events that night, you can see it below.
Other news involves the other man on the scene that night, Dustin Stewart. Stewart has been released on bond 0f $50,000 after being charged with murder. The charge came about because police say he was committing a felony when Martin was shot. Stewart will have to wear an ankle bracelet to monitor him and his movements during the bail.
