TWIN OAKS WOMAN PLEADS NOT GUILTY

A Twin Oaks woman re-arrested for shooting another woman in the head last year has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and three other felonies. Prosecutors say Cori Cotton was arguing with Kristin Goldberry before the shooting, then buried her body in a shallow grave east of Bakersfield.

Her boyfriend Brett Stroud is charged with being an accessory.
