Eugenio Martínez

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eugenio Martinez was one of the five men recruited by G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt in 1972 for the Memorial Day weekend Watergate first break-in at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters in Washington, D.C. Weeks later, on June 17, 1972, the men were arrested by District of Columbia police inside DNC headquarters during what they said was a second entry into the building to correct problems with the first break-in. Martinez and the others were convicted in the ensuing Watergate scandal. He worked for Bernard Barker's (another burglar in the Watergate break-ins) real estate firm. [1][2]
