Hon. Martinez Says Restraint Is Difficult
posted (July 6, 2017)
We also asked Martinez what he thought of his colleague Edmond Castro's testimony. Martinez didn't answer directly because he says he didn't hear it, but he took the opportunity to call out PUP Senator Michel Chebat on his line of questioning. While Castro didn't think twice before attacking Senator Mark Lizarraga- Martinez says he had to hold himself back from insulting Chebat.

"In terms of Castro testimony he called out Senator Mark Lizarraga on a personal issue regarding his maid. Did you think that was appropriate to bring up in that case? Did you hear that part where Castro actually called out Lizarraga on that?"

Hon. Anthony "Boots" Martinez
"No, I didn't hear. But put it this way, you have Mr. Chebat who was very agitating and making insulting remarks and making accusations, comments towards even myself. I was borderline in terms of saying something personal to him also."
