On the morning of March 13, 2019, 30-year-old Magen Goyette was fatally shot while seated in the passenger seat of her mother’s pickup truck in Au-sable-forks, New York. The shooting followed a series of domestic disputes between Goyette and her boyfriend, 30-year-old David J. Bova. Earlier that day Bova had crashed his SUV; witnesses who approached saw him retrieve a rifle. When Magen and her mother, Michelle Goyette, drove up, Bova stood on the road and opened fire on their truck. One of four rounds struck Magen in the head, causing fatal skull fractures and brain injuries. She was taken to Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital in Plattsburgh and pronounced dead.

State Police apprehended Bova after he fled on foot. He was arrested and charged with second-degree murder, attempted murder for endangering Magen’s mother, and multiple weapons counts. Initially pleading not guilty, he later changed his plea to guilty on five of six counts, including second-degree murder, as his case moved toward an October 2019 trial; sentencing was scheduled for December 2019. Does anyone have information about Magen, her routine, or that morning that could shed further light on what happened?
