Ashley Goodrich: The Fair Haven Record
Family accounts and dated appeals in a continuing source history.
Abstract
NamUs MP103658 lists October 17, 2021 as Ashley Goodrich’s Date of Last Contact in Fair Haven, Vermont. It names Fair Haven police and Homeland Security Investigations as agencies.1
The Person Her Family Remembers
Cam Smith interviewed Ashley’s mother, Jody Pierce, and sister, Aaron Faber, for WCAX. Pierce recalls an Addison County upbringing, outdoor interests and time with her children.2
Faber recalls an October 2021 visit to Ashley’s home.2
Contact and the Public Notice
Sarahbeth Ackerman’s report, published December 30, 2022, says police had received a family missing-person report on Thursday. It describes relatives being unable to reach Ashley for an unspecified period. The original police filing was not inspected.4
The NamUs agency references are 22FH004018 and BN09MS23BN0001. Two listed agencies do not supply two independent eyewitness accounts or explain every step of the investigation.1
WCAX records Chief William Humphries describing a request for direct contact that he said went unanswered. Relayed messages and direct confirmation remain different kinds of evidence.2
Sourced Accounts and Questions
Here’s where you come in. Can you identify the documented contact supporting the NamUs date and keep its original reporting voice attached?1
Can you obtain the police filing behind the December notice, separating the report date from a witnessed contact or a period without communication?4
Can you distinguish a person’s own recollection from information relayed to them through messages or another person?2
Can you date each public appeal before treating it as a description of the investigation today?3
Keep the source, speaker, observation date and unanswered question together in a Research File in Almost Solved. These records invite careful follow-up without assigning blame.

Later Search and Appeals
WCAX describes two July searches and says the warrants were sealed. Their underlying affidavits were not inspected.2
The December 2022 WPTZ notice describes a Subaru as a possible vehicle. Its conditional description does not establish an observed journey.4
WCAX later describes police seeking information about an Explorer last registered to Ashley. These differently dated vehicle references should retain their separate source contexts.2
James Maloney’s October 12, 2025 WPTZ report records a further family appeal and changed reward terms. Those terms belong to that dated report; current availability has not been verified. The parents’ stated belief about the disappearance remains their attributed assessment.5
Daniel Duric’s April 24, 2026 Newport Dispatch report describes another public request for information, attributes the assessment to the Vermont Intelligence Center and repeats the October 17, 2021 contact date.3
The publication dates trace successive appeals. They do not establish additional sightings or a present resolution. A later confirmed finding would need its own dated source.
Scope and Method
Original statements and sealed warrant materials were not inspected.
