 Even though this case isn't nearly as old as others, there hasn't been many leads and the trail has gone cold. In 2001, Brian Martin was a troubled 16 year-old. He had been in trouble for stealing and setting fires. He had been sent to a boot camp and it was suggested that he not be allowed to attend extraciricular activities for a while. He was very angry that he could not attend a ROTC dinner. In late 2001, Martin pretended to leave for school, but hid behind his garage with a knife. When his father came home from work early, he confronted Martin and was stabbed to death. Brian Martin fled on foot. In 2003, there were reported sightings of Martin in Mexico, and rumors stated that he may be working for a drug cartel. I don't think that's the case though. I believe he's still in the U.S., but his appearance has changed so much you'd never be able to recognize him. His braces are probably gone, he may have gotten taller and heavier, and may have grown facial hair and longer hair. I never understood why AMW never aired him again after 2003. He was only like 18 at the time, so I think it would've been easier back then to catch him. Even though he's in his mid to late 20's today, there can still be a chance to get him in custody. If you have any information regarding ththee whereabouts of Brian Martin then contact the Cathedral City Police Department at 760-770-0308.www.cathedralcitypolice.com/cathedralcitypolice.com/dotnetnuke/en-us/mostwanted.aspxAdmin Note: If you have any news-related updates on this case, please contact us here: amwfans.com/thread/1662/website-contact-form |

I'm not much of an expert on this case, but chances are if Martin travelled all the way to Cancun, Mexico (according to the AMW website) then he probably hasn't travelled back to the US. Besides, how would a 16-year old Caucasian-American get to Cancun if he didn't have help? I can't figure out how he would have done it without assistance.

For some reason, I think when they last profiled him, they mentioned that he may have been traveling with a man in Mexico who had been identified as a registered sex offender. There's barely anything online about Martin, so I don't have a source, but I seem to remember that. If it's true, it would show how he got to Mexico.

It would make sense. But yes, I'm surprised that AMW hasn't aired Martin since 2003.

Just wanted to mention that the Cathedral City Police Department hasn't had their Most Wanted website page up since 2014 from what's saved on web.archive.org. As far as I can tell, Brian Martin is still at large as of this posting (4/13/2017) with no news reports since this thread was made.

I sometimes try to see if our website is mentioned in social media sometimes and there was once a Facebook post linking to our site about him. I feel this is a rather high-profile case because of that and if he was captured it would make some sort of news.

Hello-
My name is Kelly. Brian is my younger brother. I have pictures and documents to prove that AMW was incredibly biased in my step mother's favor in this story and that she is no where near the innocent victim she tries to portray. We had years of our childhood destroyed because of her abuse. They also broke contract with me in regards to showing my face. I was a senior in high school. I'm sure you can all imagine what that was like when this story aired.
The DA's office in that part of CA has a cold case unit and my brother's cases is one they have open there. I call every single year on the anniversary of the murder-11/1. This part Nov was the 20 year mark.
I just want closure. I know my brother is dead and I know 'she' was involved.

Hi Kelly,
Welcome to the forum. I am sorry for this happening while you were still in high school, I know that must have been torture, and while as an outside observer, I can't take anyone's side, I do hope one day Brian is located whether he's alive or not and any truths can be sorted out.

Kelly,
I don't know if you remember your childhood, but your family went to Wheatfield Neighborhood Church. Your older brother Tom (I think that was his name) was a year younger than me. Your mom, Janet, was an incredible person. Her story is still such a testimony! You and your family have been through so much! I pray for continued healing and that you and your family get answers and closure! ♥️
