Two reader comments about Martin Lopez
I just happened to stumble on to this article by accident.
Martin was my husband a very gentle and loving man. From one day to another his life was taken away for a sensless stupid argument. Martin loved life and always lived it to its fullest. He was a very happy man, always with a smile on his face always positive about everything not one ounce of negativity in his life.
I do miss him so much and always will. I am glad that justice was served in this case, that the animal that took his life away will never see the streets again. He will feel the same pain that I am feeling not being able to spend holidays with his family and especially grandchildren.
Leandro Claros showed no remorse in court. Well, I know how you are feeling now and I hope that things never get good for you that only bad things to come your way for the animal that you are!

— Esther, I'm glad you got justice and closure for this murder.
For many others, they will never get this.
