<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">According to the Courier-Journal, former Louisville Metro Police Detective <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/breonna-taylor-kelly-goodlett-expected-to-plead-guilty-for-falsifying-search-warrant-filing-a-false-report/">Kelly Hanna Goodlett</a> pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to violate the civil rights of Breonna Taylor. Kelly allegedly helped falsify an affidavit for the search of Breonna&#8217;s apartment that resulted in her March 2020 murder. The former detective admitted to the charge before U.S. District Judge Rebecca Grady Jennings. Breonna&#8217;s mother, Tamika Palmer, among others, was present in the courtroom.</p>
<p>Kelly is the first officer to be convicted regarding Breonna&#8217;s death. <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/23/us/breonna-taylor-ex-officer-kelly-goodlett-guilty-plea/index.html">CNN</a> reports the Department of Justice said in a statement, &#8220;First, Goodlett admitted that she knew that the affidavit in support of the warrant to search Taylor&#8217;s home was false, misleading, and stale.&#8221;</p>
<p>The statement continued, &#8220;Second, Goodlett admitted that she and the other detective conspired to obstruct justice by providing false information to investigators after Taylor was shot and killed.&#8221; The former detective is expected to testify against two former colleagues, Joshua Jaynes and Kyle Meany. A third ex-detective, Brett Hankison, is charged in a separate federal indictment. As we previously reported, the four individuals were hit with federal charges filed earlier. In addition, the individuals are facing civil rights offenses; federal authorities charged the defendant with unlawful conspiracies, unconstitutional use of force, and obstruction, according to Attorney General Merrick Garland.</p>
<p>Court records show the trial for Joshua and Kyle is scheduled for October 11th, and Brett&#8217;s trial is set for October 13th. Kelly is expected to be sentenced on November 22nd. She faces a sentence of no more than five years in prison if found guilty, plus a $250,000 fine and three years of supervised release.</p>
<p>Many Roommates commented that five years isn&#8217;t enough time for her role in losing Breonna&#8217;s life. One commented, &#8220;She should definitely get 15-life, but ok.&#8221; Drop a comment and let us know your thoughts on the upcoming sentencing.</p>
