COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — No one disputes that a 15-year-old Ohio girl involved in the slaying of a man during a robbery five years ago was at one time, in the words of the state’s Supreme Court chief justice, “a forced sex slave.” What is up for debate before the Ohio Supreme Court is the impact of the girl’s prostitution on her role in that killing. The defendant, Alexis Martin, and her attorney argue that a juvenile judge made a mistake when Martin’s history of sex trafficking wasn’t adequately explored at a hearing that determined whether the girl should be charged as an adult. The Associated Press doesn’t normally identify victims of sexual assault or juveniles charged with crimes. In this case, Martin has been frequently identified in the media and court documents and doesn’t have a problem with being named, her attorney said. Investigators say Martin and a female friend came up with the robbery plan with two other men. The victims were Martin’s pimp and his brother. The girls were having sex with the victims to distract them when the robbers entered a house and the victims were shot, according to court documents. Martin is not accused of firing a gun. Martin’s lawyer, Jennifer Kinsley, says the juvenile court judge should have determined that Martin was covered by a 2012 Ohio law that protects children whose crimes are related to their status as trafficking victims. Had the judge determined that the so-called Safe Harbor law applied, a court-appointed guardian for the girl could have been named, and that person could have investigated the full extent of the girl’s history of prostitution, Kinsley says. There were plenty of warning signs, including the girl’s call to a probation officer when she was 14, saying she’d been kidnapped and taken to Cincinnati and forced to perform exotic dances, Kinsley told justices this year. The girl “is a crime victim. She was being raped and sold for sex,” she said. Ultimately, the judge determined the girl could not be rehabilitated in the juvenile court system and transferred her to adult court, where she pleaded guilty to murder and other charges. Now 19, she’s serving 21 years to life.
Try her like they do blacks. Fucking whites get away with literal murder.

It was a robbery, not a revenge murder. That sex slave thing has no weight in this.
Leo Williams
Reading comprehension fail. She was sentenced to life in prison even though she was just fucking her pimp at the time of the home invasion and wasn't the actual killer.
Of course it does. She wouldnt have been there if she wasnt a sex slave.
Juan Sanders
I'm confused why someone would name a boy 'Alexis'
Camden King
I thought the same thing but you simplified the math a lot from what I had, thanks user.

Here's Alexis Martin, and her pimp.
She's a monkeylipped nigger just like him, and she doesn't look very scared or traumatized in this photograph.
In fact, she looks pretty sure of herself.
And I'm pretty sure that the worthless fucking nigger needs to spend the rest of her worthless fucking nigger life in a prison.
It was premeditated robbery and murder, and she was actually giving her pussy out for free to manipulate and facilitate the crime, not being 'forced into' anything.
A 4¢ bullet would do just fine, solving the problem for everybody and saving taxpayer dollars

Ooops
I inadvertently forgot to attach the picture of Alexis Martin…
The victim dangled the promise of drugs before her and other girls to keep them working for him. (he didn't force her into prostitution. she was a 15 year old drug addict)
Martin told friends that Kerney might make a good robbery target since he kept drugs and money at the house.
The victim allowed Martin and Janae Jones into his home in November 2013, the night he was killed. Martin danced and had sex with the victim and an 18-year-old man at the home.
Martin also abused drugs and alcohol at a young age and reads at a fifth-grade level.
Assistant Summit County Prosecutor Pete Daly argued for a 26 years-to-life sentence because Martin played a key role in the crime and initially refused to cooperate with investigators. a report compiled by Dr. Lynn Luna Jones of the Psycho-Diagnostic Clinic characterized Martin as a bully with a history of fighting, abusing animals and manipulating.

It looks like they already took it into consideration during sentencing. She'll probably be out on parole at 40.

You just shouldn't try a 15 year old as an adult on principle, ever.
