In April of 1997, a man noticed a flock of vultures in a remote area near Indio California. Upon getting a closer look, the man realized that he had come upon the remains of a young boy. This discovery would spark a large-scale investigation and hunt for the boy’s killer. Law enforcement could have never been prepared for what would be found during a years-long investigation that uncovered multiple victims, in different states. When the killer finally faced justice, the highly disturbing details of his crimes would cause chaos in a California courtroom. Join me as I walk you through the case involving victim, Anthony “Tony” Martinez.
