Gadsden Murder suspect back in jail


Peggy Renata Martin

A Gadsden woman who was released to Community Corrections after being charged in the murder of her boyfriend is back in jail after violating the conditions of her bond.
52 year old Peggy Renata Martin,  was charged in the stabbing death of 52 year old Robert Culberson. The couple lived on Dwight Avenue when Martin went to a neighbor’s house about 3 p.m. Nov. 22, 2013, asking that someone check on Culberson because she had stabbed him.
Police arrived to find Martin and the two neighbors sitting on the porch, and Culberson inside the house on the kitchen floor with a stab wound near his heart. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Martin was arrested the day of the incident. She was released to Community Corrections March 10, 2014, under what Etowah County Chief Deputy District Attorney Marcus Reid said were “strict conditions.” Among them was a requirement that she enroll in drug treatment.
She was jailed again on May 15, 2014, because she failed to comply with the conditions of her release. Her bond was reinstated and she was released to Community Corrections again on Dec. 17, 2014.
Martin was jailed again on April 14 to serve a three-day sanction after she tested positive on a drug screen for methamphetamine. She was released April 17.
Reid said her arrest Monday came after another revocation of her bond.
