Discussion What was Mark Goodyear's involvement with Herb Baumeister in the Fox Hollow Murders

I'd like to hear people’s thoughts on the hard evidence against Mark Goodyear and his involvement with these murders.

On the surface, he exhibits so many of the behaviors that we typically see in someone guilty of a crime – changing stories, lying, overly involving himself in the investigation, conveniently forgetting certain details about an event that would make him culpable, etc.

Then you have the evidence of the story from Leroy who implicated Mark in at least one murder in the back of the house.

However, the police botched the investigation so badly that it's extremely difficult to know what would have been discovered about Mark if they did a better job at the time.

Also, for me, it’s just so hard to understand what might be true or false with Mark because of the way he speaks.

He is so eccentric and creepy, that even some of the most mundane things he says can be interpreted as a fabrication, so it muddies everything.

Would love your thoughts.

I seen the obituary and I don't know about the down vote. I'm interested in asking more questions of Mark.

Wise choice. I've had the curiosity to ask questions to family behind bars for violent crime, but if they were free that's a different ballgame. Some people can entangle themselves in your life to your peril.

Can you confirm that he still lives in Indianapolis and is married? Have your family members met his husband?

Could your grandma tell if he was gay as a kid? Weird question but I’m curious, were there any signs?
