Chad Courtney Gooch was booked at Teller County Detention Center on August 26, 2026, according to the official jail record.

The roster lists second-degree kidnapping involving a minor; first-degree assault while lawfully confined or in custody; false imprisonment; menacing; sexual assault; tampering with physical evidence; unlawful sexual contact; and a “Violent Crime - Cause Death/SBI” entry. The source provides NCIC codes for several labels but does not cite Colorado statutes or subsections.

Colorado Title 18 generally defines second-degree kidnapping as specified knowing seizure or movement without consent or lawful justification, or certain takings of a child; false imprisonment as knowing confinement or detention without consent and legal authority; and menacing as knowingly placing or attempting to place another in fear of imminent serious bodily injury. Its first-degree-assault provision includes a custodial circumstance involving an intent to cause serious bodily injury to an institution employee performing official duties and causing bodily injury.

The code separately defines sexual assault and unlawful sexual contact through nonconsensual sexual intrusion, penetration or contact and other listed conditions. Evidence tampering concerns destroying, concealing, altering or presenting evidence with intent to impair its availability or truthfulness in an investigation or proceeding. Colorado's crime-of-violence provision is a sentencing designation tied to enumerated offenses and circumstances; it is not proof of the roster's alleged conduct.

Because the booking record omits state citations, these descriptions are legal context only and are not assigned to a particular charge subsection. The source does not show a court disposition. A booking or charge does not establish guilt.
