“If you’re not a local, you may not know this, but our Sheriff is tough on crime, and we don’t harbor fugitives (especially not ones who are wanted for such horrible crimes),” said Polk County Sheriff’s Office.
The U.S. Marshals Service tracked Goff to Polk County and alerted the Sheriff’s Office, who swiftly moved to apprehend him. The Washington County Sheriff’s Office has confirmed their intention to extradite Goff back to Oregon to face the charges against him.
Goff is currently being held at the Polk County Jail.
