The former wife of “Ghost Adventures” star Aaron Goodwin found out her sentence after pleading guilty to trying to have him killed.

Victoria Goodwin, 32, was overcome with emotion during her appearance in court on Thursday, awaiting her sentencing by Judge Nadia Krall at the Eighth Judicial District Court in Las Vegas, Nevada. Back in April, Victoria Goodwin admitted to conspiracy to commit murder, having been discovered planning with convicted murderer Grant Amato to kill Aaron Goodwin, 49.

Amidst a challenging period in her marriage in 2024, Victoria Goodwin was involved in an emotional affair with Amato, who is serving a life sentence in Florida for the 2019 murders of his parents and brother. This connection began after Victoria watched a documentary on his case, leading her to reach out to the incarcerated Amato.

Authorities discovered the murder plot and correspondence between Victoria Goodwin and Amato after prison staff confiscated a cellphone from Amato.

During a text exchange, Victoria Goodwin asked Amato, “Am I a bad person? Because I chose to end his existence. Not divorce.”

Amato, who was not charged with any crimes related to the murder plot, reportedly had someone on the outside who was to carry out the execution of Aaron Goodwin. Victoria Goodwin was the one who provided Amato with “payment plans, location, anticipation, and nothing done to stop the plan once in motion,” according to Las Vegas Metropolitan Police.

Aaron Goodwin filed for divorce after learning about the plot in March.
