Family members of suspect Martin Martinez told deputies that Atencio had gone to the family home multiple times throughout the day. The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that each visit led to disputes and Atencio was ordered to leave each time.
Atencio also lived in the small community about 6 miles outside Espanola.
