Victim testifies Brooklyn prison guard raped her, threatened her with solitary
Gripping a tissue and sniffling with a water bottle close by, a woman told a Brooklyn federal court jury and a full audience on Tuesday how she was repeatedly raped by a prison guard at a Sunset Park jail.
“He stood me up, put me on the desk, continued to pull my pants down … and he penetrated me,” Maria said of Lt. Carlos Martinez.
Martinez, 47, is on trial for allegedly raping the woman five times between Dec. 2015 and April 2016 inside the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC).
