NFL’er in bullying scandal says he fled to safe house after Jonathan Martin’s Instagram post

A former 49ers offensive lineman and Stanford star was ordered to stand trial on three felony counts for a threatening photo he posted last year on Instagram.

The New York Daily News reported that a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge ruled that the photo of a 12-gauge shotgun and ammunition posted by Jonathan Martin was sufficient evidence to warrant a trial.

The Feb. 22 photo of the weapon and 19 shells on a motel bed included the social media handles of Martin’s former Miami Dolphins teammate, Ritchie Incognito, and two former classmates at Harvard-Westlake high school, the prep school Martin attended in Los Angeles.
