A former Florida police officer has been sentenced to serve ten years in prison after being convicted of offering two teenagers a stark choice: either (1) to remove all their clothes and then run naked in front of him, or (2) to face arrest and jail time.

Michael Martinez, then 28, was convicted in October 2019 of two counts of extortion and two counts of unlawful compensation for his actions involving Remy Riley and her then-boyfriend Kyle Shoulta. The victims were both 18 when the incident occurred. A jury ultimately agreed that Martinez crossed the line from law enforcer to lawbreaker.

“Of course I felt scared,” said Riley, who is now in her 20s. “Of course I felt intimidated.”

At the time, Martinez was reportedly on probation at his job at the Miccosukee Police Department, which serves the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida. He was fired around one year after the incident, according to local reports.

5. Omg I have a similar story from when I was 16,

we were at the beach and got caught skipping school. We were too afraid to tell anyone, I still have told very few people exactly what happened that day. I was completely humiliated, that memory from 1993 still carries embarrassment...also Florida.
I'm so happy this guy was actually punished.
