Gabriel Martinez, 27, was convicted by a jury last week of one count of child cruelty by endangering health. The jury found him not guilty of two counts related to allegations he orally copulated a 16-year-old boy.

Today, the former Bandini Elementary School playground supervisor was sentenced to probation and ordered to stop drinking and to attend child abuse and alcohol counseling.

I'm working on a full story for tomorrow's Daily Breeze.

This guy sounds like a younger version of Dr. Zeljko Zic. So Denise, what is the latest on the status of Dr. Zic's case you originally reported on last summer? Would you print a follow up?
