Goffney, 27, faced the court in Delaware County in Southeastern Pennsylvania. “He is expected to plead guilty in Philadelphia to similar burglaries with his brother on June 26,” according to a local media report.
In late November 2008, Taleon received four to eight years in state prison for committing a burglary one year earlier. He was sentenced while awaiting trial with his sibling on separate burglary and conspiracy charges.
The twins were arrested in June 2008 following an investigation by a tri-state task force that was formed following a string of more than 40 robberies in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
Their mother, Towana Goffney, also was arrested and charged with serving as a lookout for her sons during at least one South Philadelphia burglary.
Before his November ’08 sentencing, Taleon expressed remorse for his crimes. However, Common Pleas Judge Michael Erdos was unmoved, calling Taleon “a repeat, multistate, equal-opportunity offender who committed crimes while on probation, while awaiting sentencing and while awaiting trial.”
As Keyon and Teyon, together and separately, the twins shot for BlackMen.net as well as Flava Works and CocoDorm.com, among other outlets.
