Steven Martin is a gnarly looking dude who's staring down (with one eye) a federal indictment for conspiracy to distribute meth.
A grand jury handed down the indictments on Friday, but Martin's mugshot was just too good not to share. But Martin, 56, isn't a man to be fucked with (as Wu Tang would say). He allegedly set up a home invasion at meth dealer's house. Then his buddies, brothers John and Timothy Younce, showed up dressed as police officers in order to rob the place.
They had help on the inside, too. Vernon Tennison Jr. allegedly
left the back door of the house open to help get the robbery started.
While this plan was going down on May 23, the target was apparently shot
and wounded.
Martin, the Younces, Tennison and Jason M. Keeton are all charged
with participating in a conspiracy to distribute more than 500 grams of
methamphetamine between January 1 and May 23. They're also charged with
aiding and abetting each other to use a firearm in the commission of a
drug-trafficking crime.
Oh, and keep an eye out for Timothy Younce. He's still at large, so keep
an eye out for him.
It's a sad day when there is no honor in meth dealing.

Whats the status on S.Martin?
It's been awhile since all the drama-I'm 34 now and have knw him since I was a pup-never did anything to hurt or lead me into temptation!

I pray for lil'stevie, rach.ang,jos,stac, and the rest of the fam I dont know......love you all yr pool buddy...koko.

dear anonymous i would like to help with bills and books ive been trying to get info but everytime i find something out its not true or wrong address iam not allowed to go to the house for reasons i cant share but steve helped me and i owe him could someone please let me know what i can do he was like a dad to me susiechapstick70@yahoo.com
Laury,
You are absolutely right. Steve would not want Lia bashed publicly. I apologize. Not so much for what I feel, but for making my opinion so public. It was in poor taste.
I have been putting together a "fund" of which I will bring to you. To be used for attorney fees, or his books, or even to help pay the phone bill so that Steve can continue to call his wife and daughter regularly.
You know me too. And you will see me on the side lines.
I would like to join the ranks of the many people that are tight with Steve and whom he confided in. LOL. I am friends with Steve. We share a mutual love and respect that has been tested thru time and distance and still remains today. Steve stood by me thru 10 of the longest and hardest years of my life...a debt that can never be repayed. To those of his "friends" that choose to use this forum as the trial and execution of Lia, I have a few questions. Would Steve want you, his friend, to bash Lia, his wife and mother of his child? He would not. Does Steve call you everyday, or even once since his arrest? Do you go visit him at every opportunity? Have you put money on his books? Have you went to any of his hearings? If you answered yes to even one of these questions, then by all means stand up and call yourself a friend, and if you didn't then your "opinion" means nothing. This blog shouldn't be about what type of home someone has lived in (I grew up in a trailer, by the way). What they do with their money, or where they spend their free time but instead should reflect the horrible injustice being done by the Feds to the 5 men and their families that are being falsely accused. This is not the time to issue Lia a beatdown but rather the time to get it together and help Steve anyway we can. So give me a call, if your really a "friend" you know who I am. See you at his next hearing!
omg!!!! I am so upset this is someones dad grandpa o and the man who saved my life!!!! and i man i would do anything for thanks to him iam off that shit and have been since he saved my ass !!!!I love u stac and iam sorry u have to read all this bullshit!!!! mother fuckers talk a whole lot of shit when ur locked up trust me i know!!!!!! really its nobodys business abot ms. martin and all u flappin ur gums cant wait
Hey, friend of a friend and u kno me... I am a Steve's friend and ALWAYS will be. I know a whole lot more than you think! Hurt by Lia? It can't happen. Jealous? Of??????? We're talking about a woman that's going to be sitting around without any utilities soon. Not to mention the fact that she won't be able to pay the property taxes on the house or any of the vehicles that she doesn't "jones" off. I'm going to tell you what kind of person she is because Steve himself told me. He told me he had thousands of dollars put away (I'm talking about 5 digits) in a place where only the two of them knew of. This money was to used to get out of the ghetto, start a legitimate business, and to have his kid living where she wouldn't be going to a "hood" school. Lia took the money and gambled EVERY cent of it away. She tried to point fingers at others but as he told me, he knew it was her. We're talking about a woman that was trailer trash before hooking up with Steve. She lies about her background, claiming to have a high school education. She's obviously too stupid to know that these things are easily checked out. Ghetto is all she has ever been and ghetto is all she ever will be! That's not just my opinion, it's a fact! Do you want to keep debating it? I will always have a rebutle.
Thats how much you know, your two cents are worth nothing. Get a life!!! Why the hard on for Mrs. Steve Martin??? Jealous??? For whatever NOBODY cares what your thinking. But if Mrs. Martin is working her way up the food chain WHY they live in the GHETTO??? Treat people as YOU want to be treated. Guess thats why you cant be a nice person, cause what you have to say is NOT NICE. WTF and you know soooooo much about them. LMAO!!!!!! You have no idea!!!!
what a bunch of bs. anonymous. its pretty obvious you're hating on this woman for whatever the reason. what does lia have to do with what steve is accused of? maybe he did it to supply her habit? whatever. how about this: maybe he didnt do what he is accused of at all? maybe he is innocent until proven guilty? maybe you are a jealous pig who gets off on talking trash about someone you obviously have wronged and are hurt because these people shut you out of their lives. thats how im seeing it.
In reference to the article and the other blogs, I want to add that I know Steve very well.
First, let me say that he would NEVER give any of his children meth. He would kick the ass of anyone he thought did or would. However, a great deal of children follow in their parents foot steps.
Secondly, I've always known him to be a fair and honest man in his dealings. However, if you cheated him or ripped him off, he didn't take it lying down.
Is he guilty? My thought is that perhaps someone involved may have owed him. Also, times have changed. People can't roll like they used to. Deperate times may have called for desperate measures. He is a man whom loves his first wife, Louise, his five daughters, and his current wife, Lia, very much. He wants to be able to support them at all costs. Lia herself, has a far greater habit than his own, for drugs and the casinos. He also had to support all her druggie-nannies. It's no secret that she can't take care of their daughter without the help of one of them.
The question now is, how is she feeding those habits now? She's been seen numerous times at the casino since his arrest. It's a known fact that she can't get up and go without a shot of dope. She has always screwed her way to the top of the food chain, so who now? The Mexican drug cartel?
That's my two cents worth, anyone else?
wtf a wonderful father oh yeah he use to give all u girls meth didn't he. Don't act like he is this wonderful dad. Has he ever done a honest days work (not having people cook meth for him) Come on now u as his daughter know exactly what kind of dad he was so don't get all centimental now shit hes been doing dirt for years and never went to jail , who knows maybe he told on people oh shit he did tell on people well now he got told on. Wish i could shake that persons hand cause personally i think STEVE MARTIN IS A PIECE of shit
well its about steve got what is coming to him. who ever said he is a loving father is so full of shit. he is a piece of shit and deserves just what he has coming to him.
Stacie, I was referring to the half ass story Justin Kendall wrote in the pitch (above) for news readers whom assume its the truth. First off Timothy Younce is and has been in prison for years so how is he "still at large". I hate reporters who put out a story based on the hype not the facts. Its all about the money or the publicity not the truth. I suppose defamation of character isnt enough but throwing in some bogus half truths to make it a jucier story isnt much better than a meth user perpetrating to be a cop.
Mandy's article sounds like she is mad that the criminals got caught. They, the criminals got what they deserved. Don't blame the police for doing good police work. "They have their ways" great journalism.
Its a sad day when you post something like this in your paper. Hard up are??? To me your making fun of Steve Martin.
I have known Steve Martin for the past 10-12 years. I am honored to have him for my friend. I know the whole family, wife, girls and grandkids. He is a very caring and loving man. If ever I would need him he would be there for me.
Whats sad is the damn conspiracy charges people can get charged with. The goverment should do away these charges. Innocent or guilty it doesn't matter. Conspiracy charges always find you GUILTY. No evidence so they always throw conspiracy charges on them.
As far as a scarey or gnarley looking dude, he is a good looking man. He is beautiful inside and out. The family knows there in my prayers.
anonymous....who are u talkin to?? and thx daddy_too he is a wonderful father and i hope that all this is rectified in court...this is a bunch of crap and nikk thank u..
I don't believe that story . I personally have not seen Steve in a few years but that shit they say NOT HIS STYLE . & What the F**** is conspiracy ? Not solid evidence , Bullshit charge , guilty or not conspiracy finds you guilty . Steve you & your family are in my prayers.
this story is half false . get the facts before you post some bs that just sounds juicier than the truth. or better yet get a life.
I'd been trying to decide over the past few days whether or not to comment about this. Stacie saying part of what I wanted to say has prompted me to do so.
I know of Mr. Martin but don't know him personally. From what I know of interactions with friends and family and indirectly with him (no, he's not my "plug"), he's a scary mofo and one extremely devoted father and the devotion of his wife could only be the devotion one would have for a good man.
I've had very positive indirect interactions with him, one extremely negative one, and exchanged an email or two as well as a phone conversation (all part of a potentially negative situation friends helped me get out of).
In the past I've asked people who know him to convey my respect and he's reciprocated.
I'll agree that's a mugshot worthy a tremble or two, but am also told it barely looks like him.
Flip-side is that one of the friends who has described him as a scary mofo is himself one of the scariest-looking (but quite cool) mofos I've known.
that scary lookin dude is my dad....so plz watch what u say bcuz no matter what n e one says it didnt got down like that...its a sad day when he was for sure innocent...hopefully the truth is brought about..and he isnt as scary as he looks...he is a loving father of five daughters and 14 grandchildren who love him very much and hate to see all this happen to him...dont kno what imma do if i never get to hug him again..
