WILTON, Maine_A Wilton man has been charged with murder in the death of his grandmother.
22 year old Dana Craney is being held at Franklin County Jail. He's accused of killing 67 year old Joanne Goudreau, whose body was located behind the mobile home the two shared on Weld Road in Wilton. Officers from the Wilton Police Department discovered the body around 4 PM Saturday after relatives had asked them to conduct a welfare check on Goudreau.
"And when Wilton police arrived on the scene, they discovered her body in the back yard." says State Police spokesman Stephen McCausland. Craney, he says, was charged with murder early Sunday morning.
Detectives have not released details of how Goudreau died. "We have some ideas." says McCausland, "We're looking for that medical examiner's final report to confirm what we suspect is the cause of death."
An autopsy on Goudreau will be completed later Sunday in Augusta.
