Lehigh Acres man wanted after being accused of inappropriately touching girl
A Lehigh Acres man is wanted for failing to show up to court amidst accusations of inappropriate touching of a little girl.
According to Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers, a 72-year-old Lehigh man used candy and treats to lure a young girl into letting him touch her inappropriately.
Alejandro Martinez was on the verge of being sentenced when the victim told an adult Martinez kept a bowl full of snacks in his bedroom.
Southwest Florida Crime Stoppers said Martinez would prey upon the little girl when nobody else was present.
Martinez was originally arrested for the attacks last year. He didn't show up for court.
Martinez has four previous arrests that show a pattern of predatory behavior on little girls.
He was first accused in 1993, then again in 2015, and finally last year — all in separate incidents with different victims.
Martinez is 5 feet, 7 inches tall, 225 pounds and when he is arrested, he will be held without bond.
