Michael Goeman, 59, was killed on March 16, 2021; his remains were found weeks later along an unmaintained, overgrown corridor near West Valley Highway in Algona, close to Auburn’s Game Farm Park. His 31-year-old son, Vance Lakey, was discovered in the same vicinity about a week after his father. The King County Medical Examiner ruled both deaths homicides by gunfire. Reports state both men were found shot and left with digging tools nearby.

Investigators linked these killings to a pattern of attacks centered on wooded areas near Game Farm Park. Prosecutors filed charges in December 2023 alleging Bradley killed Goeman and Lakey and cite evidence including sightings of Bradley driving the victims’ vehicle and motorcycle after they vanished and an alleged attempt to pay someone to burn an impounded vehicle, which prompted an arson charge.

Family members have spoken publicly about losing father and son and called for answers as court proceedings continue. Does anyone have information about Michael Goeman or sightings in the Game Farm Park corridor around mid-March 2021?
