“The loss of Constable Deborah Martinez is felt throughout our state,” said Governor Ducey. “Whether serving in the U.S. Army or performing her duties as a constable for Pima County, she dedicated her life to helping others and her community. Constable Martinez was a native of Tucson who will be remembered for the way she treated others with dignity and respect. Our thoughts and prayers are with her friends and family, as well as those who also lost their lives in today’s tragic events.” Martinez joined the Army after the September 11, 2001 attacks on our country and served for the next 16 years. She volunteered with local nonprofits dedicated to veterans and their families after leaving the military and served on various veterans advisory groups. Earlier this year, he became a Justice Precinct 8 constable. ——-Bivian Contreras is a real-time editor for KGUN 9.
