What started as a break-in at his Southwest Miami-Dade County nursery became a year-long saga for Julian Martinez.
On May 16, 2016, someone broke into JMart Nursery and stole thousands of dollars worth of equipment.
“This golf cart, lawn mowers, power tools,” Martinez listed the missing items.
He filed a police report with Miami-Dade’s Agricultural Patrol, a unit created to combat this type of crime in his area of the county. But before a detective could be assigned to the case, Martinez found the cart on June 4 just blocks from his home.
“I saw my golf cart and two kids were driving it,” Martinez said.
He followed the cart to the home of a mechanic who told detectives in a recording that Ag Patrol Officer Elton Mathis had brought it to him.
Internal Affairs Detective: Why was he dropping the golf cart off?
Mechanic: To get it painted.
Internal Affairs Detective: And when Officer Mathis delivered the golf cart to you, did he tell you that he was the owner of the golf cart?
Mechanic: Yes.
The day Martinez found the golf cart, the mechanic called Mathis and put Martinez on the phone.
“He asks me who I am and I said, ‘Well, I’m the owner of the golf cart and you have a lot of explaining to do,’ and he goes well, ‘If that’s your property then go ahead and take it and leave,” Martinez recalled.
Martinez says he refused to take his cart back until Internal Affairs arrived. When they did they began investigating how the stolen golf cart wound up with Officer Mathis.
Under oath, Mathis told investigators he found it “attached to a stop sign around the corner from my house abandoned.” He told them threre was a “sign that taid “Take Me” on it. He said he was off-duty at the time.
