Two people connected to the robbery and murder of a Rockwood man are found guilty on murder charges.

Kendra Ivey reportedly confessed to investigators with the Knox County Sheriff’s Office of “setting up” Victor Letner to be robbed by Charlie Martinez.

Letner was last seen in Rockwood on February 7 of 2021.

KCSO says Letner went to Knox County to meet Kendra Ivey who took him to a vacant house on Kodak Road, where Martinez reportedly robbed, shot and killed Letner.

Ivey pled to first degree murder and Martinez was found guilty on all charges and convicted of first degree murder, especially aggravated robbery and unlawful possession of a weapon.

Martinez was sentenced to life in prison on the murder charge and the sentencing for the other charges will be held on April 20 for both suspects.
