Martha Quam arrested by EPD for physical child abuse and domestic battery


Martha Katherine Quam arrested by EPD yesterday for PC 273d (a) physical child abuse and PC 243 (e) (1) domestic battery. 

Quam aka Martha Katherine Kearon was arraigned on 9/3. Public Defender was appointed, criminal protective order filed and served in court, $20,000 bail. OR bail on 9/5; trial confirmation on 9/18; jury trial on 9/23.

She has a 2010 DUI conviction. In her 2020 divorce case against Mark Kearon there was a dismissal in 2022 of the restraining order, she was represented by Callie Buck.  Gregory Kreis ousted by the voters and a former judge was assigned to this family law case.









9/5: Quam was granted supervised release.

9/18: Trial confirmation and modification of protective order continued by defense to 9/19.  


9/19: At trial confirmation, the alleged victim was present in court. Judge Steven Steward granted Deputy Public Defender Emery Welton's request to modify the protective order since Deputy DA Andrew Truitt had no objection. 9/23 date was vacated. Trial setting is on 10/ 7.

10/7: Trial confirmation on 12/18/24; jury trial on 1/6/25.

12/18/24: 1/6/25 jury trial date vacated. Disposition reset scheduled for 3/18/25.

This is a low priority case for me and readers. If this case resolves at the next hearing, I will post an update but I am no longer posting on every hearing.
