The person of interest in the disappearance of Ella Goodie will be extradited back to Louisiana.
Brandon Francisco appeared in the 5th Judicial Circuit Court in St. Joseph, Missouri on Wednesday.
Law enforcement in Louisiana have until April 15, 2022, to take custody of Francisco, according to an order.
Francisco was arrested in March by U.S. Marshals in Missouri on a warrant out of Rapides Parish Sheriff's Office.
He is believed to have been the last person to see Ella Goodie who has not been seen since March 9, 2022.
Family members say Goodie was giving Francisco a ride to Houston. Her SUV was found last week, but still no sign of the missing Scott woman.
