Courtroom footage captured Oldham County Attorney John K. Carter’s words on video on Oct. 14.
Mauro Martinez, who is Guatemalan, was pulled over last July, allegedly for speeding (although Martinez insists he was not speeding). The speeding charge did not stick, though; rather, Martinez was charged for driving without a license because he could only provide a Guatemalan ID card.
