On April 30, Aaron Martinez celebrated his 35th birthday. A day later he was brutally murdered by his neighbor who had been harassing them for years and saying he didn’t want Latinos in his neighborhood. According to CBS News Texas, when Martinez moved to Forney more than 2 years ago, 30-year-old Trevor McEuan began harassing him immediately.
“He started to follow us…[saying] ‘We don’t want you Spanish people in the area,’” Aaron’s father Salvador Martinez told CBS News Texas.
