Matson was the "bestie" of local jeweler Darin Goodale was knocking on neighbor's doors ranting unfounded claims about what happened.

Goodale was a frequent guest of Matson's at the Ingomar Club.

A staff member told me Darin Goodale does not own property in Eureka however I have other information and will check on it myself.

Goodale maybe familiar from his reckless evading case. He is on informal diversion for that case.

This is a post I did where another older woman accused Darin Goodale of assault.
