Amy Blankenship, an attorney with Coolidge Wall Co., released the report to this newspaper as a result of a public records request. Coolidge Wall is the law firm that represents the city of Trotwood.
Goody, 42, was taken off patrol and assigned to administrative duties in April after the police department received a complaint from a 35-year-old woman who said she was sexually assaulted by Goody in her Outer Belle Drive apartment in Trotwood while Goody was on-duty.
The sheriff’s office conducted a criminal investigation after being contacted by the police department in April, but the investigation concluded that no criminal charges would be filed.
Authorities believed that Goody, who is married, and the woman, who no longer lives in the city, had a consensual sexual relationship.
The sheriff’s office issued a supplemental report relating to Goody’s criminal investigation to the police department that said, “Goody stated all the encounters occurred at her apartment while on duty and never anywhere else.”
Quincy Pope, Trotwood’s public safety director, did not immediately return a phone call placed by this newspaper.
Frank Malocu, the attorney representing Goody in the sheriff’s criminal investigation, said Goody fully cooperated with the investigation.
The sheriff’s report said Goody met the woman last year while patrolling the area where she lived. The two became friends and began texting each other. Goody said he gave the woman advice on finding a job, raising children and finding a better place to live, and she performed oral sex on him on several occasions.
The sheriff’s report also said that the woman told police that Goody told her how to make a false call so that he could be dispatched to her residence. An investigator reviewed a text that was allegedly sent to the woman from Goody that read, “Actually … you can put a call in and I will take the call. That way it would be better.”
Detectives with the sheriff’s office interviewed the woman on April 29. She told them that she did perform oral sex on Goody while he was on duty and in uniform, but “had only done so because she was scared of him and that she really did not want to give him oral sex,” according to the report.
The woman told the detectives that Goody forced her to perform oral sex at least two times in her apartment while her children were asleep.
A sheriff’s detective noted in the report that that the woman provided cell phone texts that the detectives determined were “subject to interpretation of the two possibly being involved in some sort of a relationship.”
The woman also said she discovered that Goody was married in October of 2014 while doing an online search.
The sheriff’s report stated that Goody and the woman remained in contact via texting after the alleged rape.
