Woman Charged in Officer's Murder; Bond Set

Kristy Brumley, 35, has been charged with complicity to murder and tampering with evidence in the fatal shooting of Louisville Metro Corrections Officer Michael Wehdah. Brumley admitted to leading Wehdah to the location where he was shot by a known co-defendant and subsequently took his car and phone to conceal evidence. Officer Wehdah, a Liberian immigrant and recent U.S. citizen, was found dead on February 16 in the Russell neighborhood. The Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) has not yet arrested the shooter, and investigations continue. Chief Paul Humphrey stressed the community's commitment to seeking justice for Wehdah and the ongoing efforts to hold all responsible parties accountable. Brumley's bond has been set at $250,000, and her next court appearance is scheduled for April 3.
