Murder Trial Delayed Until August

Forty-year-old Jennifer Goodall is charged with open murder after police say she shot 23-year-old Chase Hoyt during a domestic dispute at their 10th Avenue home last fall. Responders couldn’t save Hoyt at the scene. Goodall was heard admitting to the shooting in a 911 call. Her trial, once set for March 3, is now scheduled for August 4, with a plea hearing in late July. The delay allows time for state police to finish a blood pattern analysis critical to the case.

Health Officer Liz King says the department appreciates the community’s patience during the process and remains focused on transparent, high-quality care for local teens. The county’s Board of Commissioners will review the clinic’s long-term plans later this year.
