Witnesses testifying Thursday in the trial of woman accused of taking part in a 2024 double murder in Davenport showed jurors evidence taken from the scene of the crime.
Brian Goodwin and Amy Smith, both 44, were found in the early morning hours of Jan. 16, 2024, after a neighbor called in a fire at 5210 N. Division St., where Goodwin rented the basement portion of a converted house.
Adriana Blake is accused of taking part in the murders, which Scott County Attorney Kelly Cunningham asserts was motivated by robbery.
Blake and Devon Braet are accused of the shooting deaths of Goodwin and Smith, which investigators believe happened in the early hours of Jan. 15, 2024.
Blake and Braet were arrested days after the discovery of the killings, and on Feb. 5, 2024, both were charged with two counts of first-degree murder, among other offenses.

Blake and Braet were tried as co-defendants for the first day-and-a-half of testimony in the trial, which started last Wednesday after two days of jury selection. The first-degree murder trial of Braet was severed from Blake's trial last Thursday and is slated to start June 16.
No money recovered
During direct examination by Cunningham, Davenport police detective A.J. Poirier told jurors no money was recovered from the basement apartment where Goodwin lived at 5210 N. Division St.
Throughout the trial, Cunningham has built on testimony that claimed Goodwin regularly carried large amounts of cash. According to witness Victoria Smeaton, Goodwin had a large roll of bills when he visited her after midnight on Jan. 15, 2024.
Goodwin's wife, Sarah Goodwin, also told jurors early in the trial that he had recently received retirement money and she had loaned him $40,000.
Richard Dean, a friend who said he did construction and remodeling work with Goodwin, also said he gave his friend $5,400 for work they completed on a trip to Arizona in December 2023.
Drugs inside 5210
During Thursday morning's testimony, Davenport police detective Matthew Johnson took jurors through a list of drugs and suspect substances removed from the basement apartment at 5210 N. Division St.
The known drugs removed were: Percocet, kratom, diazepam, oxandrolone and ketamine. Goodwin did have pain issues with his back and had groin surgery in the spring of 2023 that left him in pain, according to the testimony of Sarah Goodwin and Smeaton.
Percocet is a prescription drug that contains oxycodone and acetaminophen to treat pain.
Oxandrolone is anabolic steroid prescribed to promote weight gain. It also can be used as a steroid to develop muscle. Ketamine is another prescription drug that can be used in pain management. It also is used in the treatment of severe depression and anxiety.
The evidence list noted "70 orange pills in packaging" and "136 unknown brown pills in a plastic bag" were recovered.
A number of bags and envelopes that contained various colors of "unknown powder substance" were removed from the home. Substances described as "crystalline" were also found.
A number of witnesses said Goodwin regularly used drugs like heroin, fentanyl and methamphetamine. Testimony from the trial indicated he may have been augmenting his income by selling drugs.
Goodwin was the subject of a major drugs investigation in the late summer and fall of 2023 that culminated with a raid on 5210 N. Division St. on Oct. 5, 2023.
Testimony in Blake's trial is set to resume Friday morning.

It probably seems like, every day, you're reading a new headline about a recalled food item, like onions on McDonald's hamburgers, baby carrots, and Boar's Head cold cuts. You're not imagining that influx.
According to a February 2025 report from the compliance company Traceone, the total number of food recalls issued by the Food and Drug Administration and Department of Agriculture grew 15% between 2020 and 2024. Experts suggest this could be due to a variety of factors, including advancements in technology for identifying harmful pathogens and challenges with staffing and sanitation at manufacturing plants.
In the U.S., the FDA and the USDA have many regulations of which food manufacturers must comply. When a noncompliant product makes it to stores' shelves, restaurants, or Americans' homes, the manufacturer typically issues a recall. Then the FDA in most cases and USDA in cases involving meat, poultry, and egg products, work to alert the public about any items that may be in their pantries or refrigerators that could be unsafe to consume.
Food recalls are issued for a wide range of reasons, including foodborne pathogens, mislabeled allergens, or contamination with foreign material. The FDA maintains a real-time list of active food recalls -- in March 2025 alone, the FDA issued recall notices on foods such as beloved snacks like Tostitos chips and frozen meals by Lean Cuisine and Stouffer's.
Of course, following these alerts can be overwhelming at best and concerning at worst. The public's perception of the federal government's ability to keep America's food supply safe reached a 25-year low in 2024, according to Gallup data. Based on their latest poll last year, 28% of U.S. adults don't have much confidence in the government's ability to keep the food supply safe, and an additional 14% have no confidence at all. The majority -- 57% -- say they have a "great deal" or "fair amount" of confidence, but that's down 11 percentage points from Gallup's 2019 survey five years prior.
To help keep you aware of recent recalls, Stacker has compiled a list of all food and beverage recalls issued by the FDA each month. It's important to note that only particular batches of foods and beverages are typically recalled; you can check the FDA's site for details on which specific batches are affected, based on their Universal Product Code located on the packaging.
Read on to learn more about what you should be wary of in March 2025.
