Henry Martinez was an infant, just days short of his six-month birthday, when he was found unresponsive at a home on White Mulberry Drive in Las Vegas on the night of August 3, 2016. First responders noted swelling to his brain; he was taken to University Medical Center and died two days later. The Clark County coroner ruled the death a homicide from blunt force injuries to the head and neck and identified additional blunt force trauma to the torso. Investigators described the injuries as definitive for child physical abuse, with multiple areas of the body affected.

The boy’s father, 33-year-old Assuan Martinez, initially told emergency personnel that Henry had choked on a bottle. Medical examiners and pediatric specialists concluded the injuries were not consistent with first aid attempts. Investigators reported discrepancies in the father’s account, wet baby clothes found in a sink, unexplained blood on a living-room ottoman, and allegations that Henry had been forcefully shaken and soaked while unconscious. Assuan Martinez was arrested and charged with murder and later released on bond after surrendering his passport.

Does anyone have information about Henry’s last hours or about the household on White Mulberry Drive that could help clarify what happened?
