#CourtHearing #Sentencing #CriminalCase #legalupdates
In this sentencing hearing, the court confirmed that the judgment for Ms. Goodwin is scheduled and asked whether there was any legal reason to delay pronouncement. The prosecution stated there was none. The court reviewed prior reports, including the May 15, 2025 Senate investigation and a May 29 memorandum. The prosecution explained that no sentencing recommendation was being made due to Ms. Goodwin’s lack of prior criminal record, but emphasized the seriousness of her actions.

Evidence revealed that on October 2, 2024, Ms. Goodwin communicated with Mr. Amato, a convicted murderer, about her intent to end her husband’s life rather than pursue a divorce. She provided detailed information about her husband’s whereabouts, vehicle, and personal details. Discussions included financial arrangements with Mr. Amato’s associate “Gordo,” including payments totaling around $60,000. The prosecution highlighted that Ms. Goodwin never attempted to retract these plans, showing the gravity of the offense.

Defense counsel argued that Ms. Goodwin had abandoned the conspiracy by November 2024, distancing herself and ceasing communication with the individuals involved. They also noted that neither Mr. Amato nor Gordo faced charges. The defense urged the court to consider her prior clean record, the limited role after November, and the absence of actual harm.

The court acknowledged both perspectives and retained discretion over sentencing, balancing the lack of prior record with the detailed and serious nature of the solicitation.
