Medusa wasn't a goddess. She was one of the three Gordons. However unlike the others, Medusa was human to start with. She began as a mortal, very beautiful. Her beauty captured the attention of the god Poseidon. He raped her in the temple of Athena. Of course that angered the great Athena and so she cursed Medusa to become the terrifying creature was famously known for. Honestly, Medusa didn't deserve her punishment. But fate was cruel.
