Angie Melissa Moore, a 45-year-old woman from Waco, Texas, tragically passed away on September 6, 2022. She was known for her vibrant personality, love for animals, and her strong faith. Angie worked as a vet tech and later learned carpentry, often crafting in her "She Shed." She was a beloved member of her community and had a 13-year-old son.
On the night of her death, Angie called the police to report a break-in at her home.
She informed the dispatcher that she had a gun and would be forced to shoot her neighbor, Cynthia Ellen Ming, in self-defense. When the police arrived, they found Ming, completely naked and covered in blood, attempting to flee the scene. Despite attempts to subdue her with a taser, Ming was eventually detained and taken to the hospital for treatment.
While receiving medical care, Ming confessed to shooting Angie in the head with Angie's own shotgun. Ming claimed that Angie had killed her dog, which motivated her to commit the murder. However, the affidavit did not provide details on how Angie allegedly killed the dog. Angie was found unresponsive in a large pool of blood and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Cynthia Ming was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. She is currently being held at the McLennan County Jail on a $1 million bond. The investigation into Angie's death remains active and ongoing.
Angie's family has set up a GoFundMe account to cover the costs of her funeral and to support her son. The community has come together to offer condolences and support to her grieving family.
This tragic incident has left a deep impact on Angie's loved ones and the community, who remember her for her kindness, love for animals, and her beautiful voice.
