This is sick and insane.
Martinez, her boyfriend, and ex-boyfriend had been harassing and assaulting Jones for years. Jones, a TSA agent, was fed up with this abuse and agreed to testify against them so they would all go to jail.
After they tried to bribe her not to testify, they decided to hire a hitman to murder her.
Authorities are alleging the May 3, 2021, murder of a 24-year-old Florida mother was a hired hit job, financed with a federal Paycheck Protection Program loan, according to reports. Earlier this week, PEOPLE confirmed the arrests of Javon Carter, 29, Romiel Robinson, 35, and Jasmine Martinez, 33, for the murder of Transportation Security Administration officer Le’Shonte Jones.
Jones, who was working at Miami International Airport, was fatally shot outside her apartment in Homestead — right in front of her 3-year-old daughter, who was also injured. A newly unsealed arrest warrant, obtained by WTVJ and the Miami Herald, alleges Martinez arranged Jones’ murder, after the young mother agreed to testify against Martinez and two others, the outlets say.
The reports indicate that the warrant accuses Martinez of paying Carter to carry out the hit using federal funds obtained from a $15,000 COVID-related PPP loan. The warrant reportedly alleges a video was recovered from Carter’s phone from the day of the shooting, showing him counting a large amount of cash, and bragging, “Just another day at the office.”
Martinez had assaulted Jones in the past. When Jones testified against her, Martinez’s ex-boyfriend robbed and attacked Jones outside of the courthouse, which led to him being arrested.
Jones tried her best to get them all behind bars, but they murdered her instead.
