A state grand jury has voted not to file any criminal charges against a West Deptford police officer at the conclusion of its deliberations regarding a motor-vehicle collision that resulted in the death of Jose M. Martinez, 42, of Lindenwold, New Jersey, in West Deptford on November 9, 2025.
Mr. Martinez’s death was investigated by the Office of Public Integrity and Accountability (OPIA) and presented to New Jersey residents serving on the grand jury in accordance with the Independent Prosecutor Directive of 2019, which was issued following the enactment of a state law requiring the Office of the Attorney General to investigate deaths that occur during an encounter with law enforcement.
The investigation included witness interviews, photographs, radio transmissions, vehicle digital forensics, review of video footage from police dashboard cameras, body-worn cameras, and third-party surveillance cameras, as well as autopsy results from a medical examiner. This evidence, including video of the incident, was presented to a state grand jury. After hearing the testimony and evidence, the grand jury finished deliberating on June 1, 2026, and voted “no bill,” concluding that no criminal charges should be filed against West Deptford Patrolman Conor Goggin.
