News Herald Arrest Report

Woman leads deputies on high-speed chase
 
A Lenoir City woman was arrested on drug charges Thursday after a high-speed chase.
Loudon County Sheriff’s Office Cpl. Zac Frye started following a purple Chevrolet Camaro that was speeding on Highway 70 near Mealer Road. Once Frye was behind the vehicle, it reached speeds exceeding 90 miles per hour.
Frye attempted to stop the car at Abbott Road, but the driver sped on. Frye pursued the vehicle into Roane and Anderson counties and Oak Ridge city limits with speeds ranging from 30-95 mph, Frye wrote in a report.
The car then entered the Y-12 National Security Complex property where Frye and LCSO Sgt. Matt Fagiana managed to box the vehicle in. During the maneuver, the Camaro hit Frye’s patrol car and caused minor damage to the front bumper.
The driver, Mary Margaret Goddard, 45, had constricted pupils and was lethargic. She performed poorly on field sobriety tests, and dispatch said her license had previously been revoked for driving under the influence, Frye wrote in a report.
During an inventory of Goddard’s vehicle, Frye found one clonazepam and several buprenorphine in an unmarked pill bottle. Goddard has three previous DUI convictions out of Sevier and Loudon counties.
Goddard was charged with evading arrest, reckless endangerment, reckless driving, driving under the influence, driving on a revoked/suspended license, possession of a Schedule III substance and possession of a Schedule IV substance and held on $35,500 bond.
Couple arrestedA Lenoir City couple was arrested together Sunday after officers couldn’t decide who was the primary aggressor in a domestic assault call.
LCSO Deputy Luke Hawkins arrived at a home on White Wing Road to investigate a call for domestic assault. He spoke to a man who said Michael Leon Smallen Jr., 38, and Crystal Lyn Hall, 41, were fighting on the back porch.
Hall was on the back porch. While Hawkins and Deputy Mark Rodriguez spoke with Hall, Cpl. Zac Frye found Smallen in the kitchen closet, Hawkins wrote in a report.
Smallen had a small laceration on his right hand, which he said was from the door of the closet he was hiding in. He told deputies there was no physical altercation. He said the two argued because she thought he said something offensive.
Hall agreed there was no physical altercation. She said they were arguing over “life choices.” Hall had blood on both of her arms, which Hawkins believed was Smallen’s, and a small scratch on her right forearm. She said the scratch was not caused by Smallen and the reason his blood was on her arms was because of how close they were. Smallen confirmed her story.
Both witnesses at the scene said they did not see the altercation but heard yelling and what sounded like a fight. Deputies were not able to determine a primary aggressor. Both had warrants out of Loudon County.
Smallen was charged with a juvenile court attachment and held on $300 bond.
Hall was charged with violation of probation and held on $5,000 bond.
