Erin Ashlyn Moffatt Killed Her Mama

October 3, 2008 at 10:21 am by  

League City, TX – Erin Ashlyn Moffatt, 19, reported her mother missing the week of September 7 – just in time for Hurricane Ike to make its way to Galveston. No wonder, then, that in the flurry of preparations for the storm, Jana Moffatt, 47, didn’t turn up right away. On September 15, two days after Ike made landfall, Jana Moffatt’s body was found in a field.

When Erin Moffatt reported her mother missing, she told the League City police that Jana Moffatt had left their trailer without her car, wallet, purse or medicine. Shortly thereafter, Ike made landfall and League City, which is very near Galveston, was inundated.

On September 15, a woman’s body was found in a field near Texas state Highway 35. But the body wasn’t an Ike victim – she’d been dead about ten days. An autopsy found that the woman had been strangled. She didn’t fit the profile of anyone reported missing in the hurricane. But she did fit the description of Jana Moffatt.

Investigators started looking actively for the elder Moffatt, and got a tip that she had died and that her daughter Erin had left the area and gone to Louisiana shortly after reporting her mother missing. On Wednesday, Jana Moffatt’s body was identified through dental records – almost a month after her death.

A search of the Moffatt home turned up something, although Brazoria County is keeping the evidence under wraps. After the search, a warrant was issued for Erin Moffatt both in League City and in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana, where Erin was arrested on Thursday along with her boyfriend Michael Corey Lewis. Lewis’ involvement in Jana Moffatt’s death is uncertain, but at this point he is being charged with evidence tampering.

Erin Ashlyn Moffatt is being held at the Lafayette Parish Sheriff’s Office in Louisiana. She is awaiting extradition to Texas on a charge of murder. Her bond has been set at $250,000. Michael Corey Lewis is being held on a $100,000 bond. More details as we get ‘em.

    I hear ya. I just don’t understand why people think this is their only option, only way out, etc. As a teenager my Mom and I went rounds, daily, but as much as I thought I hated her at times the thought never crossed my mind to kill her.
