Roberto Molina Jr., an 18-year-old Latino male, was fatally shot on February 10, 2002, in the Central-Alameda area of Los Angeles near the Alameda Swap Meet. LAPD officers responded around noon to a radio call reporting an assault with a deadly weapon and found Molina suffering from gunshot wounds; he died despite efforts to save him.

The investigation identified Gerardo Martinez as a key suspect. Martinez, who had a prior conviction for first-degree murder, was charged in Molina’s killing with allegations that included personal use and intentional discharge of a firearm causing death and committing the crime for the benefit of a criminal street gang. In August 2010 a jury found Martinez guilty of first-degree murder and true the firearm and gang allegations; Martinez was sentenced to life without parole plus 25 years to life.
