The defendant was sporting visible abrasions and cuts on her hand and wrist</h6>
<p>A fifth child, Diana Romero, was also stabbed, but was in stable condition at a children’s hopsital in Atlanta. According to a <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/romero-family-funeral-medicalfund" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GoFundMe</a> page set up to help pay for funerals and medical costs, Diana has gone through surgery and will likely remain in the hospital for a few weeks before starting physical therapy.<br />
Martinez was all smiles during her Friday court appearance, often grinning directly into cameras. At one point she stood up and offered a sweeping bow before sitting back down and offering a thumbs-up to reporters.</p>
<h6 class="ra-caption"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-206751" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/isabel-martinez11.png" alt="Isabel Martinez11" width="861" height="363" />Isabel Martinez arms spread in liberation, seemingly oblivious of the implications of 5-counts of aggravated murder and murder with malice leveled against her</h6>
<p>Gwinnett County Magistrate Judge Michael Thorpe admonished her to “cut out the display for the cameras. It’s really not a good idea. It’s not really to your benefit.”<br />
Martinez also rejected a court-appointed attorney, despite qualifying for one, <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2017/07/07/us/georgia-stabbing-court-thumbs-up/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">CNN</a> reported.<br />
“My attorneys are always going to be the people and my faith,” she said in Spanish through an interpreter. “Those are my attorneys, that’s why I’m here.”</p>
<h6 class="ra-caption"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-206754" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/memorial-to-victims-from-the-martinez-family.jpg" alt="Memorial to victims from the Martinez family" width="1200" height="877" />Flowers and stuffed toys left on the doorstep of a Loganville, Ga home where four children and their father were stabbed to death by their wife and mother on Thursday, July 6</h6>
<p>The judge recommended she accept legal counsel, but couldn’t force her to do so, according to the news station.<br />
“I’m representing the people that’s humble, that’s hardworking, the people that suffer the people that have a lot of charges so that they understand everything is possible through God,” she said.<br />
As she left the courthouse, Thorpe could be heard muttering: “Wasn’t that delightful?”<br />
Police said Martinez had been cooperative with investigators, though they have not yet revealed a possible motive in the deadly attack.<br />
“This is a horrendous crime, not only for the victims but for the extended family, neighborhood and community,” police said in a statement. “We are hoping and praying that the remaining victim survives.”</p>
