The U.S. Open ref accused of slaying her husband talked with cops about Andre Agassi while spouse's body sat upstairs: source

Lois Goodman, 70, allegedly bashed her husband in the head with a coffee mug until the handle snapped off - and then stabbed him with the jagged ceramic piece

Lois Goodman leaves Manhattan Criminal Court in custody of Los Angeles police on Thursday.

The U.S. Open umpire accused of murdering her husband chatted with cops about her career and Andre Agassi as his gore-spattered body sat upstairs in their bed, a police source said.




Lois (Lolo) Goodman, 70, also complained bitterly about her dead spouse when investigators arrived at their California home on April 17, the source told the Daily News.

Goodman seemed more focused on her tennis career and her own problems than on the death of her 80-year-old husband, Alan, said the source.

She also dropped the name of two-time U.S. Open champion Agassi while speaking with police, according to the source.

Lolo, despite her detached demeanor, bashed her husband in the head with a coffee mug until the handle snapped off — and then used the jagged ceramic piece to stab him, the source said.

The coroner even found pieces of the mug embedded in Alan Goodman’s scalp, another police source told the News.

Goodman, who waived extradition, left court Thursday in handcuffs and her U.S. Open jacket to catch a plane to California. Her Los Angeles arraignment was scheduled for Monday.

Goodman — in town for the U.S. Open — was arrested Tuesday at a midtown hotel on the murder rap.

The source indicated that the LAPD used seven search warrants to scour her home during the investigation, waiting until just this month to declare the case a homicide.

An affidavit in the case portrayed the out-of-bounds suspect as a cool and calculating liar who misled police investigating Alan Goodman’s death.

The line judge told cops that when she returned home on April 17, she found a trail of blood leading up the stairs of her Woodland Hills, Calif., townhouse.

She followed the spattered blood to a second-floor bedroom where Alan Goodman was found dead.

The suspected killer told cops that she believed her husband suffered a heart attack, fell down the stairs and then staggered back up to his bedroom, sources told the News.

In reality, cops said, Lolo bashed and gashed her spouse of nearly 50 years with a coffee mug.
