Fort Campbell Soldier Sentenced

{Hopkinsville, Kentucky}...Christian County Circuit Judge John Atkins has sentenced 22 year old Joshua Huntley, a Fort Campbell soldier who was convicted of trying to hire a hit man to kill his ex-girlfriend, to 11 years in prison. Huntley was arrested in June 2011 after discussions with an undercover police officer posing as a hit man. During the hearing, Huntley apologized to the ex-girlfriend and told Adkins he didn't really want to go through with the hit, but was afraid to sever communications with the undercover officer.
