With the fire alarm blaring, they busted in the front door and searched the smoke-filled apartment for Victoria Martens. The woman told officers her 10-year-old daughter was still inside apartment number 808 from which they had escaped. Neighbours said Victoria’s mother worked at a nearby grocery store deli and they were shocked to see a mug shot of her in an orange jail jumpsuit. Victoria’s mother told police she met Gonzales online about a month ago and that he drugged the girl so he could calm her down and have sex with her, the complaint said. Martens told police she allowed Kelley to stay in her apartment after Kelley was recently released from prison.
