Prior to the murder, Gooddale posted details about the planning on social media.
No motive is currently known, and the two defendants are being held in jail on $ 1 million bail.
Miller testified that he was in the park at the time of the murder, provided "materials used to carry it out" and helped hide the body.
The murdered woman's son, Christian Gerber, posted on Facebook that he forgave those who killed his mother.
"She was an angel and one of the best souls," he said.
His sister, Nohama Marie Gerber, wrote that "we had the wonderful luck of growing up in a home filled with an abundance of warmth and love."
Jefferson County District Attorney Patrick J. McAven said that "at this point, we have no evidence" whether the murder was committed on racial grounds.
"The well-being of our students and staff is our top priority," the school said in a statement.
