VIDEO – SUPER TROOPER –
Feb. 10, 2022 – Martin’s parents were summoned to pick up her daughter, while Martin rode with trooper Hathaway to the Hennepin County Jail.
Ten years later, Hathaway and Martin recall the conversation they shared at the jail.
“I remember saying right before you got booked in,” Hathaway tells Martin, “‘Please don’t do this to your daughter. She needs a mom. I know because my mom left when I was 10.’”
Hathaway went on to share with Martin that both her parents had struggled with alcohol, which led to her being raised by her aunt and uncle.
As Martin was booked and photographed — her blood alcohol level nearly three times the legal limit — she promised trooper Hathaway she would make things right.
Martin vowed to visit the trooper in a year, sober.
“Quite frankly, she had said it and I was like, ‘Okay, well…’” trooper Hathaway said. “I didn’t think that I’d hear from her.”
