St. Paul council candidate recently kicked out of library and Twins game is now accused of posting

St. Paul council candidate recently kicked out of library and Twins game is now accused of posting topless picture of his wife


David Martinez, a candidate for St. Paul City Council Ward 4 who was recently ejected from the St. Paul Public Library and a Twins game for violent behavior, appears to have posted a topless photo of his wife on his campaign website along with a restraining order he says she sought against him.

“I’m aware,” said his wife, Meredeth Martinez. “I’m working with my attorney. I’m not going to comment on anything else.”

The restraining order stems from an altercation that took place July 4 at the couple’s home on Hewitt Avenue in St. Paul, according to documents Martinez posted on his website.

David Martinez responded by posting a semi-nude picture of his wife at the top of a blog post reporting that he had been visited by the Ramsey County sheriff’s office and calling the situation “crazy.”

The victim is one of my co-workers and she is a very nice person. I had no idea this was going on and I am just shocked.

The man certainly needs some psychiatric help. I don't know to express my feelings about his actions besides the smilie.
