Christina Elizabeth Martin, 38, was murdered on April 5, 2019, in Rockbridge County, Virginia. Martin arrived with co-worker Kimmie McKinney. Holman displayed what appeared to be a handgun; Martin fled and Holman pursued in Holloway’s truck, repeatedly ramming their car until it left the road and overturned in an embankment.

Both women were trapped after the wreck. Holman approached and, saying the act was from him, fired a single fatal shot into Martin’s chest. McKinney suffered a permanent shoulder injury in the crash. Holman fled but was later arrested; he told officers the displayed handgun was a toy and the actual weapon was in the truck. He was charged with first-degree murder and multiple related offenses.

The case went to trial in April 2021 at Rockbridge County Circuit Court. After six days and about an hour and a half of deliberation, the jury convicted Holman of first-degree murder and related charges and recommended two life terms plus 65 additional years. Does anyone have information about Martin’s life or her connections in Rockbridge County that could shed more light on the case?
