A Maricopa man accused of phoning violent threats to the city’s only mosque appeared in court today, where a judge scheduled his change-of-plea hearing for Oct. 28. He said he plans to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge at that October hearing. Outside the courthouse today, Martinez acknowledged making the call but said he regrets his words. Investigators confirmed the threats with the help of a partial audio recording provided by mosque leaders, as well as phone record analysis and federal coordination. The Arizona chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations welcomed Maricopa police’s handling of the case and the release of the recording on Wednesday.
