Hello everyone,
I’ve been following the Martin Bustos case on and off for years now, and something I’ve always found curious is the lack of eyewitness accounts, given the location of his murder. Does anyone else find it odd that there’s been no reliable witness statements from such a busy area? Since it happened near the intersection of 26th and Curtis streets, I'd assume someone might have seen something or perhaps heard the gunshot.
I feel for Martin's family, having to wait all these years without answers. I wonder if there are individuals out there who might have seen or heard something that seemed trivial at the time but could actually be vital to the investigation. Over the years, people move or grow old, and memories fade, but it's also possible someone might finally feel ready to come forward now, even if it’s just an old gut feeling. I sincerely hope anyone with information, no matter how small, feels encouraged to reach out to the authorities. The offer of anonymity, I think, is key here for some folks who might still have their reservations.
If someone on this forum, or elsewhere, has ties to the Denver area around that time, maybe discussing the neighborhood dynamics of the 1970s might jog some memories or bring new insights. We've seen other cold cases get resolved from similar leads, and every bit of information could count towards finally bringing this case to a close.
Sending strength and hope to Martin’s loved ones and hoping for justice sooner rather than later.

Hey everyone,
I recently found out about the cold case of Martin Bustos from 1970, and it’s been really weighing on my mind. One of the things that strikes me the most is how little information seems to be out there about Martin himself. Does anyone know more about his background or what kind of person he was? I think sometimes these cases get looked at just for the crime itself, and we forget about the person behind it and who they were.
It must be incredibly difficult for Martin’s family and friends not to have answers after all these years. If anyone has old newspaper clippings or any stories about him from that time, it might help remind us that Martin was more than just a case number. I hope that with continued public interest and advancements in forensic technology, there’s still a chance that justice will be served for him.
If you’re in the Denver area and have heard any stories passed down over the years or even have family who might remember something, it could be worth talking to them and seeing if there’s any detail that hasn't been shared yet. Every piece of information, no matter how small, might help bring some resolution.
Let’s keep bringing attention to these old cases, especially for every family who deserves answers.

Hey everyone,
I wanted to bring attention to a particular detail in the Martin Bustos case that has me wondering. Has anyone discussed the location where Martin was found? The intersection of 26th and Curtis streets in Denver seems pretty significant. It's an area that likely had some foot traffic even back in 1970. I've been thinking about what kind of place it was during that time and who might have been around. Were there any notable businesses or regular hangouts nearby? Could this have been a random act, or might it suggest someone familiar with his routine?
I cannot imagine the pain Martin's loved ones have felt over the years with so many unanswered questions. Every little detail could potentially be important. If anyone has info on the history of that area or noticed anything unusual from news archives or personal knowledge, sharing it might just spark a memory or new lead.
The dedication of Denver's Cold Case Unit is truly admirable, and any piece of information you might have could help them and Martin's family find the closure they've been waiting for. Thanks for taking the time to consider this.
