Martin was charged in connection with the murders of four women:
- Nancy Harrison -- Body discovered March 19, 2019, on Coventry Street -- she is considered the first victim.
- Travesene Ellis -- Body discovered May 24, 2019, on Linnhurst Street -- she is considered the second victim.
- Tamara M. Jones, who was found in a vacant house on Mack Avenue on June 5, 2019.
- Annetta Nelson -- the 58-year-old mother of two was found dead on Detroit’s west side.
Martin allegedly left a serial killer signature in each case. In many cases, he left a victim’s sock and took the time to position each body in a particular way, according to authorities.
He was also accused of raping a woman and stabbing her neck in his mother’s basement, as well as kidnapping and sexually assaulting a second woman.
