Kentucky Supreme Court

Isaiah Brown v. Commonwealth of Kentucky

August 14, 2025

Summary

The court affirmed Brown’s convictions for complicity to murder and complicity to first-degree robbery. It held that some testimony attributing phone numbers to Brown and others was erroneously admitted, and that a detective improperly vouched for a witness, but concluded the preserved error was harmless and the unpreserved errors did not produce manifest injustice. The court also upheld admission of the texts associated with Brown’s phone and the co-conspirator texts. No separate opinion is included in the record provided.
