Convicted child killer Kofhe Goodman files appeal

NASSAU- Convicted child killer Kofhe Goodman is seeking the court’s approval to appeal out of time.

Goodman was convicted of 11-year-old Marco Archer’s murder during a second trial in 2017. The judge sentenced Goodman to 55 years’ imprisonment in 2018.

Little Marco’s naked and  partially decomposed body was found in bushes near Goodman’s home on Yorkshire Drive in 2011.

His clothing was found in a garbage bin in front of the complex where Goodman lived.

Goodman’s appeal should have been filed within 21 days of his sentence.

On November 25, Goodman’s Public Defender Stanley Rolle will try to convince the Court of Appeal to grant an extension of time application on the basis that the appeal has a good chance of success.

Back in July, Goodman’s appeal was removed from the court’s calendar because he hadn’t made the necessary application.
