Dear <strong>First</strong> Partner Siebel Newsom,<br />

My name is S<strong>and</strong>ra Martinez, my beautiful daughter Qarinna Richardson (Martinez) was killed<br />

June 28,2020. My daughter Qarinna was a young mom of 3 kids (1 she lost at 6 months<br />

pregnant). Qarinna was seeking a higher education to work with the Sheriff’s department" or<br />

National Fish <strong>and</strong> Game".<br />

Qarinna got ill when she was pregnant with her youngest daughter in 2015. Gastrophorisis <strong>and</strong><br />

pyloric spasms were diagnosed at the teaching hospital in California, she was under their care for<br />

8 years. 6 of them were pain management with the above symptoms. Test after test, surgery after<br />

surgery, even being put to sleep for probing/ biopsies <strong>and</strong> internal botox, electrodes <strong>and</strong> then<br />

drilling holes in her inner throat cavity to open it up from scar damage from all the vomiting from<br />

the illness <strong>and</strong> prescribed opioids. The suggestions they left her with were two horrific choices at<br />

27. One was removal of her whole stomach leaving her with a colostomy bag, the other was a<br />

pacemaker with grafting from her throat to her groin using her own leg fat <strong>and</strong> skin, then cutting<br />

her vagus nerve 4 times to stop the nerve pain; neither of them were a 100% guaranteed to work.<br />

Neither was something she wanted to do. They then chose to not keep treating her <strong>and</strong> she gave<br />

up on them. However, during this time, she was loaded up with PH medicines, pain meds<br />

including pain patches which included fentanyl, opioid pills <strong>and</strong> topical lidocaine gel <strong>and</strong> a few<br />

times fentanyl drips at the hospital. She would be put in <strong>and</strong> out of the hospital when the pain was<br />

too severe to h<strong>and</strong>le <strong>and</strong> daily she vomited bile <strong>and</strong> blood. It was a long journey which included<br />

her staying as positive as possible for her two young daughters.<br />

In 2018 everything changed. Someone on the streets gave her heroin in the form that helped her<br />

h<strong>and</strong>le the pain. They had told her she was already consuming a form of morphine from the<br />

doctors, so it was an easier <strong>and</strong> cheaper solution. That led to injecting it, which led to muscle<br />

stabbing because her veins were blown from the repeat at the hospital. After 3 detox visits (which<br />

all failed her) because they couldn't do hospital treatments she needed for her stomach, the<br />

detox, <strong>and</strong> deal with the mental hinderances of the addiction associated with depression of her<br />

pain <strong>and</strong> loss; she begged for help, I would plead for immediate assistance from our county but<br />

the help was nowhere to be found. I was told one time (because there were no beds) to keep her<br />

high on the drugs until they found a bed. I argued saying, "why would I do that, every time she<br />

would use was a risk for an overdose!" They said, " because if she doesn't have drugs in her<br />

system after 4 days, she's considered clean". That to me was crazy! Her last detox stay was at<br />

Global Detox Menefee, California. She was totally seizing with withdrawals <strong>and</strong> vomiting <strong>and</strong><br />

shaking with muscle pain. We got an emergency bed, however 3 days later they heard a noise in<br />

her room <strong>and</strong> saw a needle in her undergarments. They sent in a team of security <strong>and</strong> woke a<br />

sleeping giant at 3:40am <strong>and</strong> dem<strong>and</strong>ed a room search. The needle had been there <strong>and</strong> was<br />

empty but still they pushed. Some might say, "how do you know she wasn't using in there?" I<br />

know because I watched for 2 days her rocking in pain, shaking from withdrawal, <strong>and</strong> crying for<br />

help. All I could do was have my
