Biography[]

Martin Gamboa was an Oscar blogger and the victim of a serial killer. He was an overweight 47-year-old white male who lived in Silver Lake in Los Angeles, California. Gamboa was found dead in his home, a victim of blunt force trauma to the head, accompanied by lacerations and bruising along his back, arms, legs and buttocks. He was also the victim of sexual assault. Gold flakes found on his body indicate that he was sodomized with the same weapon used to beat him to death. L.A. homicide detective John Lowe was assigned to investigate his murder. [1]

It was later revealed that the man was a pedophile as Miss Evers found several photos of a naked child in his clothing. John Lowe met up with him, feigning interest in purchasing Gamboa's Oscar CraigsList. John then proceeded to bludgeon him with the award several times and soon after tried to hang himself out of guilt in the bathroom but was saved by James March. [2]
