Sullivan County District Attorney Meagan K. Galligan announced that Bradley Goodnough, 60, of Liberty, was sentenced by Sullivan County Court Judge Jim Farrell on July 21, 2021, to an eight-year prison term to be followed by five years of post-release supervision for robbing a convenience store in the Town of Thompson in May of 2020.

Goodnough had previously pled guilty to Robbery in the First Degree, admitting that he displayed what appeared to be a firearm while stealing money from the clerk of the Citgo Gas Station on Wolf Lake Road in Rock Hill on May 21, 2020. Following an investigation by the New York State Police and Sullivan County District Attorney’s Office, Goodnough was identified, located and taken into custody the next day.

Galligan said, “Violent crimes like this change the lives of innocent victims. This defendant’s actions put store employees and anyone who may have entered this shop in serious danger and the sentence imposed sends the clear message that this conduct will not be tolerated in Sullivan County.” Galligan commended the work of the New York State Police and Assistant District Attorney Brian Conaty, who represented her Office on this case.
