Goodwin-Bey was convicted in 1992 in St. Louis of possession of crack cocaine, illegally carrying a concealed weapon, and resisting arrest. He was convicted in federal court in 1997 for conspiracy to distribute crack cocaine. He was convicted in 1997 in Greene County for being a felon in possession of a firearm. He was convicted in 2008 in federal court for being a felon in possession of a weapon.<\/p>\n

Goodwin-Bey is charged with four counts of first-degree murder for the shooting deaths of four people in a motel room on northeast Springfield on Nov. 15, 2014. Investigators believe Goodwin-Bey thought one or all of the victims told police about his drug use.<\/p>\n

Greene County prosecutors charged Goodwin-Bey for the murders in February 2015 after lab tests were completed on the handgun, which had been stolen in Ozark. The tests included analysis of 11 bullets and 13 casings that were in the motel room and the victims\u2019 bodies, and markings on some of them matched markings made by test bullets fired by the Ruger pistol.<\/p>\n
Goodwin-Bey is scheduled for trial in January before Greene County Circuit Judge Calvin Holden on four counts of first-degree murder and four counts of armed criminal action.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
So, Mister Goodwin-Bey walked into a convenience store in Springfield on August 23rd, acting erratically. He approached the clerk carrying a gun, a Ruger 9mm, and placed it on the counter. The clerk gave the gun to his supervisor and escorted Goodwin-Bey from the store to his white Lincoln Town Car. Police picked him up later and they found ammunition rolling around on the floor boards of his car.<\/p>\n
So, here you have a fellow who is a hardened criminal with a long record out on bail for four murder charges, yet he can still get a gun. Aren’t there enough laws in place that will prevent a criminal from getting a gun yet? <\/p>\n
Well, Mr Goodwin-Bey might finally get locked up for good, but that clerk and store manager are lucky, very lucky.<\/p>\n
Just a reminder that after the next administration confiscates our guns, the criminals will always know how to get their hands on one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
