Mark Gooch Trial

U.S. Air Force airman Mark Gooch is charged in the shooting death of a Mennonite woman. Gooch, 22, faces up to life in prison if he is convicted of first-degree murder and other charges in the disappearance and death of Sasha Krause, 27.

Krause was gathering material for Sunday school in a Mennonite community in Farmington, New Mexico, when she disappeared in mid-January last year.

A camper discovered Krause’s body in a forest clearing outside Flagstaff, Arizona, more than a month later.

Gooch was stationed at Luke Air Force Base in metropolitan Phoenix at the time.

The prosecution will try to convince the jury that Gooch was motivated to kill Krause by a general disdain for Mennonites. A bullet taken from Krause’s skull was fired from a .22-caliber rifle that Gooch owned, a state crime lab report showed.
