A three-year-old girl, Aubree Goss, died in Louisville, Kentucky, on November 21, 2024, from a gunshot wound that police described as self-inflicted. The shooting happened in an apartment in the Fern Creek neighborhood. Aubree was taken to Norton Children’s Hospital, where she died.

Police say Aubree’s father, 29-year-old E’Monta Goss, had placed a loaded handgun under a couch before falling asleep. He awoke to a gunshot and found his daughter wounded. Goss was arrested and charged with second-degree manslaughter and possession of a handgun by a convicted felon; court papers show a prior felony conviction from his teenage years. A detective testified that Goss admitted leaving the firearm accessible to the child, while his attorney said the family had kept the gun nearby after a recent safety concern. Goss pleaded not guilty and the case was being prepared for a grand jury; he was released on house arrest after bond was reduced.

Who in Fern Creek remembers hearing about or seeing signs of concern about safety in that household before November 21?
