In January 2020, Sasha Krause, a 27-year-old Mennonite Sunday school teacher, disappeared from Farmington, New Mexico. Her body was found a month later, face down in a remote Arizona forest clearing—hands bound and a fatal gunshot wound to the head.

Investigators traced her abduction to Mark Gooch, a U.S. Air Force airman stationed at Luke AFB. Cell phone data, surveillance footage, and financial records showed he drove over 400 miles to abduct her, then returned to Arizona, cleaned his car, and deleted his phone’s location data.

Gooch—who grew up Mennonite but rejected the faith—claimed he went searching for spiritual connection but denied any crime. Prosecutors said he acted out of resentment toward the Mennonite community. In October 2021, he was convicted of kidnapping and first-degree murder. In January 2022, he was sentenced to life in prison without parole

This episode explores:

The motives and mental state behind targeting an innocent teacher

How forensic technology tied him to the crime

The trial’s shocking revelations and courtroom testimony

The Mennonite community’s response—some prayed for him even after conviction

What this case says about faith, resentment, and violent crime

Content Warning: This episode discusses kidnapping, murder, and violent crime. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
