A Mass. truck drive was arrested in Indiana for allegedly killing a Worcester woman whose body was found in October near a truck stop in Georgia, officials say.
A Massachusetts woman was found dead near a truck stop in Georgia last month, and a truck driver, also from Massachusetts, was arrested in Indiana on murder charges, officials said Tuesday.
Investigators found that Jessica Goodrich, a 46-year-old from Worcester, had been a passenger in Jason Michael Palmer's long-distance truck, according to a news release from the Camden County Sheriff's Office. Goodrich's body was found Oct. 8 in the woods off a service road near Roadie's Chevron Truck Stop in Woodbine, Georgia, officials said.
Investigators found that Palmer, a 47-year-old from Littleton, was at an Indiana truck stop, and notified the U.S. Marshals and local law enforcement, who detained the driver until investigators from Camden County could arrive, officials said. They arrested Palmer on charges of murder, aggravated assault and concealing a death.
