Goodhue was selling the drug in $20 quantities out of a back window at the residence, which she shares with her mother, according to UDEST. 

During the arrest, Goodhue claimed she was selling heroin, but testing confirmed she was selling fentanyl, officials said. 

The investigation began in January in response to the death of a man who had visited Goodhue’s home shortly before his overdose, officials said. UDEST conducted surveillance and facilitated undercover purchases until they were able to develop enough information to obtain a search warrant.
