A recording from a police sergeant’s belt recorder suggests New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez was inebriated the night officers responded to a noise complaint at a downtown hotel where she was hosting a holiday party.

Now, in a new recording released by the Santa Fe police today, it looks like Martinez was pretty drunk; the Associated Press describes Martinez’s speech as “halting and lilting”, as she attempts to describe to the police the events of her holiday party.

Martinez insists there is no loud noise in the room and says while there were bottles being thrown earlier in the night, it was before she was in the room.

The audio released came from Sergeant Anthony Tapia’s belt loop recorder and features a security guard, who says he is called a security agent, speaking to the governor about the complaints.

The security guard tells both the governor and the police sergeant that he had been to the room 15 minutes earlier and “I personally heard how loud it was”.

SANTA FE, New Mexico – The woman who met police in the hotel lobby at 1:30 a.m. waved them off a complaint of rowdy behavior and demanded in a sing-song voice to know who called them. “They were told to leave and we were told to call you guys”, the employee said.

Tapia and the guard listened to Martinez, then stepped aside and agreed the governor was “inebriated”.

“State police did not give any orders to clean up anything and the officer was not aware anyone was throwing beer bottles”, Kassetas said. “I’ll see if I can get a hold of her security detail, see if we can resolve anything”, Tapia says before leaving.

Martinez also added that nobody was throwing bottles from the balcony anymore. He is also heard saying he thinks that more than six people, as Martinez stated, were in the room. It is public record.

Martinez, a former district attorney, was elected governor in 2010.

Martinez spokesman Chris Sanchez didn’t respond to two emails from NMPolitics.net on Tuesday asking if the governor stood by her previous statement that she hadn’t abused her power.

But Tapia’s recording indicates that the hotel security guard thought Martinez was drunk.

“I never expected the first time it would be the governor”, the security agent said.

The security agent added that he didn’t think there was just six people in Martinez’ room, but rather “quite a few” people.

“Yes”, the security guard says.

“I also want to admit that I made a mistake when I went to speak to the receptionist and asked her about the complaint”. “What’s worse, she vindictively wanted to know who complained about her party’s disturbance to the hotel front desk”.
