Adrian Andrew Martinez was released from federal detention last week.
But now the Huntington Park-born 20-year-old finds himself without a job after he was violently arrested in a Walmart parking lot in Pico Rivera on June 17, and spent several traumatizing days in custody, his body covered in cuts and bruises.
According to his lawyer, the young man’s terrifying ordeal began when he tried to question armed men whom he saw detain an elderly man in the parking lot where the Walmart Martinez worked at is located.
