A Lasting Legacy: The Murder of Rose Goodman

We continue our coverage of the story of 80-year-old Rose Goodman, who was a fixture of her Southwest Philadelphia neighborhood. She was a mother and grandmother who'd been a leader in the church and community, and who'd volunteered with the schools her three children attended. Her close-knit block on Broomall Street looked after each other, and lived quietly in the bustling city—so it was shocking when in September of 2023, Rose was found shot in the home she'd lived in for 50 years.

If you have any information in the unsolved homicide of Rose Goodman, please reach out to the Philadelphia Police Department at 215-686-TIPS. There is a 30,000-dollar reward available in her case.
