Guess who’s getting a new roof? (Hint: YOU’RE probably paying for it!)

Here's the house, looking from the south to the north

This is the back of the house, looking due west

And here's our lone worker for the day....walking away.

GALLATIN CO.—There’s quite a bit of activity at 9400 Sawmill Road, Junction.

Apparently, the federal marshal service has determined that “their” house—which used to be Raymond Martin’s house, but is STILL up on forfeiture, as that matter still hasn’t been settled, so the feds are responsible for it—is leaky. This was something that we had been told a couple of years ago, but up until now, there wasn’t much being done about it.

And so now, there is.

Someone has decided to put a new roof on the house of the former sheriff, and interestingly, the reports are, from the locals who pass by it every day, that it’s a bunch of “migrant-worker”-types crawling all over it like cucarachas.

We weren’t able to get any shots of any cucarachas on the roof, but one hispanic-looking guy WAS at the site (and unfortunately, as soon as he saw the camera, the only thing he provided to be shot was his backside…) But here are the shots our correspondent did get:

Now…here’s the rest of it.

The lights are on in the place at night. So someone’s got the electricity going (it’d be a feat that’s beyond us at this point to determine in whose name it is….we’d have to have a good guess before even beginning to explore that). And at least one of the ‘migrant-worker’-types is actually residing in it; he’s been seen in and around, and moving about the place at night. So someone has some posh digs….unlike the rest of his compadres up the road at the Scates motel (old high school, which houses the migrant workers year-round).

Again, there has been no movement in Raymondo’s federal case. The appeal arguments have been heard, back about a month ago, and that’s it. The forfeiture—in which the house goes to the government as part of the seizure filed after Raymondo’s arrest—has been challenged by the former missus Martin, Tina Naas, but there’s been no movement on THAT, either, mainly because her attorney has been sidelined by a stroke.

Is the government getting ready to move on the seizure and forfeit the house once and for all, and are getting it ready for auction to the highest bidder so the government can recoup some of the court costs from Raymondo’s September 2010 trial? Probably. Why they would house one of their workers, however, is unknown…unless that’s what the feds generally do. Interesting. And if we find out more, we’ll let you know as soon as we do.

  1. Wow, it has been a while since any new Martin updates. Thanks Disclosure. A new roof and Mexicans, I really don’t get it??? When do you think we will hear what the Feds plan to do with it or when they will rule on Tina NAAS and her battle to keep it? I really don’t know how she could afford the bills etc…since she is still not working, but how does she afford anything she is doing? She has only moved six times in the past two years?? Since she does have a court date coming up, would she not have a new attorney by now since hers is unable to represent her? And, has Raymond been moved again?

    • I truly think it’ll happen all at the same time. I think the appeal will be denied, the house will be forfeited, and life will then go on.The only ones who really lose out are the citizens of Gallatin…well, and of Jackson, since I think they’re going to let THAT case languish in court until they have a new state’s attorney. and then it will probably all go away quietly. And….I’m not sure if Raymond has been moved again, but I’ll check on that pretty soon.

  2. I am glad they are roofing the place if it had a leak. This way the house will bring more at an auction than one that is rotting away from water damage.

  3. Maybe the INS should get there and check on some Green cards.
