On November 11, 2008, an ATV rider discovered a burned Cadillac in a remote area northwest of Blue Diamond Road and Hualapai Way, on the outskirts of Las Vegas. Inside the charred vehicle were the bodies of 25-year-old Hispanic male Martin Jr. Martinez and his 26-year-old girlfriend Kristin Roseanne Cicale. The Clark County coroner determined both had been shot in the back of the head; investigators described the killings as execution-style and the car had been set on fire.

Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department investigators worked the scene but were left with few answers. No motive was identified, and no suspects were immediately named. Years later the investigation had grown cold and no arrests have been announced.

If anyone knew Martinez or Cicale, or saw a Cadillac abandoned in that part of the desert around November 2008, please come forward with information.
