A Santa Maria mom gunned down two weeks ago leaves behind five children. A memorial barbecue benefit will be held for Maria Martinez's children Saturday afternoon.
Martinez's estranged husband has been charged with her murder. He is in Arizona waiting to be extradited to California. The benefit gets underway at noon Saturday in the parking lot next to the Rancho Bowl at 128 East Donovan Road in Santa Maria. It costs $5 for a chicken meal.
