Press release: Update on suspicious death

The man who was arrested for shooting at a Polson Police Officer on February 14, 49-year-old, Cameron Francis, of Gridley California, has been charged with deliberate homicide.  Following the attempted homicide of the Officer, Francis’s girlfriend, 48-year-old, Kimberly Goodson was found deceased in her home in Polson.  Autopsy performed at the State Medical Examiner’s Office revealed that Goodson had been shot.  Evidence gathered indicates that Francis killed Goodson shortly before fleeing the home and travelling northbound on Hwy 93 where the Polson Officer encountered him and attempted to stop him because he had no taillights.  The cases remain under investigation by the Lake County Sheriff and Coroner’s Office with support from Polson Police.
We are thankful the Officer was uninjured in this event, and the Sheriff’s Office extends our condolences to the family of Kimberly Goodson.
See attached motion for more information.
Donald R. Bell – Sheriff/Coroner
