The Indiana Court of Appeals will determine if the case against Lake County Sheriff Oscar Martinez for allegedly resisting law enforcement and reckless driving should be dismissed.
Lake County Sheriff Oscar Martinez speaks during a press conference at the Hammond Federal Courthouse on Tuesday, June 29, 2021.
The report continues, saying the SUV was seen making a right-hand turn onto eastbound U.S. 30 in Merrillville. As officers were catching up to the vehicle, the driver activated emergency red and blue police lights, giving notice that it was an unmarked police car. In seeing the lights, officers stopped trying to catch up.
The issue that will be addressed in the appeal is if prosecutors violated Martinez’s right to a “detached and neutral atmosphere,” according to court records. The motion will also argue that Martinez “will suffer substantial damage and injury if the determination of this issue is withheld until after conviction and judgment,” according to court records.
Beginning July 1 under a new state law, Martinez would not be able to possess a firearm if convicted of a felony, Woods said. Under the same law, Martinez would not be able to carry a handgun while under indictment, Woods said.“The way changes prohibition on firearms is pertinent to this case,” Woods said. “The mere fact that he’s under indictment imposes injury regardless of the outcome.”
