A Kyle man was booked in to the Hays County Jail in early March 2017 for multiple counts of sexual assault of a child and is currently being held for a bond total of $565,000.


Eric Martinez, 38, was indicted earlier this month on a total of 14 counts of various degrees of sexual assault of a child stemming from incidents that started in 2013 and continued until 2017.


Martinez has been charged with 3 counts of indecency with a child by sexual contact, 7 counts of sexual assault of a child and 4 counts of prohibited sexual conduct with descendant.


According to the indictment, Martinez was charged with the 14 counts of sexual misconduct with a single female child victim, related to Martinez, ranging from the earliest incident in August 2012 to the latest incident in March 2017.


According to county documentation, Kyle Police were assisted by SWAT in the apprehension of Martinez who has pled not guilty to all charges.


Pre-trial motions for the case begin on Aug. 14. At this time it is unknown when a trial date will be set.
