Just weeks after Jonathan Martin was arrested for posting a cryptic message to his bullies with a photo of a gun and bullets, new details have surfaced about the arrest.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Martin was arrested with more than just a loaded shotgun. In fact, the former baller was found with a knife, an ax and reportedly had been threatening his former classmates of Harvard Westlake for years.

Upon further investigation, Martin’s girlfriend told officials that Martin had been angry and depressed since the two met. However, over the past month, she said he had been making suicidal statements and had been “writing on the walls” of his home.

As for the former classmates that were tagged in Martin’s threatening post, officials say Martin had been sending them threatening messages on Facebook since 2016.

“Thank you for being such an asshole to me when I was a kid and didn’t fit in… being dicks to me when I was a kid has made me, quite literally, insane,” one message read, while another said, “And I blame you above all. You’ll get yours, eventually – I have already paid my price for being a bad person. I wish you nothing but the worst. Best, Jonathan Martin.”

Martin also wrote another message to the same classmate, saying, “You’re a bad person. You irreparably damaged people’s lives. And you will be exposed publicly. If there is anything else I accomplished in life, it will be making sure you are outed and shamed for who you are.”

Although the classmate claimed to have apologized back in 2016, Martin reportedly still bought a gun after their exchange. In fact, TMZ reports Martin also bought another gun 13 days before his threats on Instagram.
