Bullied ex-NFL player Jonathan Martin is ordered to stand trial for 'Instagram threats against former teammates' as detective testifies he did a web search on one HOURS before buying a gun

    *Last February, Jonathan Martin allegedly threatened his former Miami Dolphins teammate Richie Incognito and two former classmates in an Instagram post
    *Martin's social media post from February 22 was ruled to possess enough evidence for the 29-year-old Martin to stand trial for the charges
    *The post displayed Martin with a 12-gauge shotgun resting with 19 shells scattered around the weapon and the handles of Incognito and Mike Pouncey
    *Martin left Miami during the 2013 season and accused Incognito of bullying
    *An NFL investigation later found that Incognito was one of three players who bullied Martin and Incognito was suspended for eight games
    *Martin's lawyer said he checked himself into a facility shortly after the post
    *A detective testified that Martin's web surfing history showed he pulled up a story about Incognito just hours before ordering the gun in the Instagram post

Martin's social media post from February 22 was ruled to possess enough evidence for the 29-year-old Martin to answer to the charges, judge Shellie Samuels said at a preliminary hearing, according to the New York Daily News.

The Instagram post displayed a 12-gauge shotgun resting on a motel bed with 19 shells scattered around the weapon. The social media handles for Incognito, fellow former Dolphins teammate Mike Pouncey, and two former classmates at Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles were tagged into the post, which featured #MiamiDolphins on the gun handle and #HarvardWestlake on the barrel.

It also had this message: 'When you're a bully victim & a coward, your options are suicide, or revenge.' ...  Full story at Daily Mail
