You know the answer to that one. The government was looking for an innocuous target. Someone they could use to make an example of. You can go after anybody working on the street, but that would get you into a web of transactions that would end up pulling the foundations out from under most of the "free market". Martha on the other hand clearly did one thing wrong. She is a simple and safe target to go after.
