In 2368, he was led to believe that a group of Bajoran terrorists were responsible for an attack on a Federation colony on Solarion IV. Since the colony was on the Cardassian-Federation border, Kennelly contacted the Cardassians to make sure that they weren't responsible. They convinced him that they weren't and he set a plan into motion with the Cardassians to eliminate the supposed terrorist threat. He sent Ro Laren, aboard the USS Enterprise, to carry out his plan. He was eventually found out as a Cardassian stooge and stopped. (TNG episode: "Ensign Ro"; ST reference: Star Trek Cookbook)
