Brandon Dockery sentenced to 45 years for 2021 murder of Raymar Webb in downtown Lexington

Brandon Dockery was sentenced to 45 years in prison Wednesday for the 2021 murder of Raymar Webb in downtown Lexington, according to LEX18. The sentencing concludes the case in Fayette County tied to Webb’s death, which prosecutors and court records treated as a homicide committed in the central business district.

LEX18 reported that the sentence was imposed by Fayette County Judge Brandon Dockery’s case, with the court ordering a term of incarceration measured in years. The 45-year punishment reflects the court’s determination of the seriousness of the offense and the impact of the killing on the victim’s family and the wider community.

The conviction stemmed from Webb’s death in 2021, when the incident occurred in a publicly accessible area of Lexington. Downtown locations are typically frequented by residents and visitors, and the court’s punishment underscores that violent crimes committed in such settings carry major long-term consequences for public safety and order.

The case proceeded through Fayette County courts following the killing of Webb. Wednesday’s sentencing marked the final step of the criminal case as reported, with the court imposing the prison term after finding Dockery responsible for the murder.

The LEX18 report did not detail the full timeline of pretrial proceedings, the specific charges beyond the murder conviction, or the evidence presented at trial in its summary. The reported focus on the 45-year sentence indicates that the central outcome for the public record is the length of incarceration ordered by the court.

With the sentence now in place, Dockery will remain under the custody conditions set by Kentucky corrections procedures for the term ordered by the court, while the affected family and community members continue to follow updates from the courts and law enforcement agencies handling the aftermath of the case.
