With some of his victims sitting behind him Tuesday in the courtroom, disgraced former Louisville Detective Mark Handy offered no apologies for helping send four innocent men to prison.
On his 62nd birthday, he admitted he had perjured himself in one of the cases and tampered with evidence in another.
Showing no emotion, he was led away to jail by a deputy sheriff after Jefferson Circuit Judge Olu Stevens sentenced him to one year in prison under a plea bargain that prohibits him from seeking probation.
Edwin Chandler, who spent 10 years in prison because of Handy’s lies, said he took no joy in seeing Handy taken off to jail.
“Nothing can replace what I have lost,” he told Stevens.
