Details of Disappearance

Goodson was last seen lived in a halfway house for mentally disabled adults in the 100 block of Nortin Avenue in Russellville, Alabama at the time of her disappearance. She was last seen leaving the facility on March 25, 2005.

She got into a small gray or silver older model car, possibly a Nissan or Mazda, with a loud muffler. The car headed east on Highway 24 towards Decatur, Alabama. Goodson has never been heard from again.

Authorities believe Goodson may be trying to reach her son, who lives in Decatur. She used to live in Florence, Alabama, and had lived in the halfway house for only a few months prior to her disappearance. She did not take any identification with her and has not accessed her bank accounts since her disappearance.

Goodson may be staying in homeless shelters. Her case remains unsolved.
