In Port Huron, a woman charged with killing her boyfriend is getting a new public defender. Forty-year-old Jennifer Goodall was arrested last September after police say she shot 23-year-old Chase Hoyt during a fight at their 10th Avenue home. Her two public defenders asked to step down, citing a breakdown in communication. The St. Clair County Public Defender’s Office will still handle the case, now with Assistant Chief Public Defender Frederick Lepley taking over. Goodall faces first-degree murder charges, with her jury trial set for August 4th.
