WHAT HAPPENED TO MYLEE?
The Suspicious Death of Mylee Moser
PART ONE
Mylee Moser grew up embracing a love for the arts, a love of the outdoors, being active with her friends, and possessed what others around her observed to be a laid back attitude and outlook on life. That didn’t mean that she didn’t have dreams, she just appreciated being in the moment.
Mylee loved her family tremendously, holding a very special place for Saffron and Onyx, who were not only her furbabies, but her companions on many of her outdoor adventures. She oftentimes saw beauty where others had missed it.
Mylee may have also saw potential in people, and because of her relative youth and limited life experience, it could have possibly put her in situations that were unstable. This belief in people may have played a factor that led her to be at a home on Rosebay Drive in Neosho, Missouri on July 4, 2024.
Mylee was at the home visiting with her boyfriend, and at least two other individuals. Sometime after midnight, Mylee was outside of the home, and sitting in her mother Reannan’s car, where the two were discussing the ongoing tension inside the home. Reannan pleaded with her daughter to come home with her.
There had been times in the past when Mylee stated to her mother that her boyfriend sometimes became “angry” whenever she would leave with her. Reannan strongly believes that was the reason behind Mylee choosing to stay at the Neosho home.
Sometime during the night, something happened to Mylee. Something that ultimately led to her death.
One of the things that was common between Mylee and her mother, was communicating through text messages. Sometimes these messages were coded, but we will get more into that at another time. They would also text whenever either one of them were traveling to various locations. It was this routine that led to Reannan texting her daughter at 1:30am, in order to let her know that she had arrived home safely.
Mylee never replied.
Sometime in the morning hours of July 4, a call was placed to 911 from someone inside the home where Mylee had stayed with her boyfriend. Upon their arrival, they found an unresponsive Mylee Moser. There are various accounts as to the condition of Mylee’s body when paramedics and deputies with the Newton County Sheriff’s Office arrived.
However, based on various reports, some things appear to be certain, and a real and thorough investigation into the circumstances surrounding Mylee’s death, could either validate or rule out some of the suspicions that are being whispered behind the scenes.
Until then, all we have are questions. And there are many surrounding the brutal death of Mylee Moser. Yes, you read that right. Brutal.
Some of the questions include:
*How did Mylee end up with what appeared to be self-defense wounds on her hands?
*How did Mylee end up with bruises that required her to wear long sleeves at her funeral?
*How did Mylee end up with a wound to the back of her head that required her to wear a bandana at her funeral?
*Why was Mylee's boyfriend allowed to keep her phone and Mac Book after her death?
Those are just four of the many questions that need to be answered. By the way, Mylee had none of those injuries at around 1:00am, the time when her mother last saw her.
At the time of Mylee’s death, Chris Jennings was the Newton County Sheriff. In fact, Jennings had been with the agency for over 30 years. Jennings was also sheriff in 2018, when Tyler Applebee was killed, and his body transported to Cardin, Oklahoma. After hunters found his remains, his death was ruled a homicide. Since then, there has been no apparent investigation by any law enforcement agency. Over the years, there have been several cases out of Newton County where no apparent investigation has ever taken place.
With there being an actual ruling of homicide in Tyler’s case, there is no legitimate explanation for the lack of investigation into it. In Mylee’s death, it’s not so much what the ruling was, but what it wasn’t. It wasn’t ruled suspicious, a homicide, or anything at all that appears to be evidence based.
There is so much wrong with this case, that it boggles the mind. And what is most angering, is the lack of any form of justice being sought whatsoever by those in authority.
In Newton County, there’s a new sheriff in town, and his name is Matt Stewart. He is new in regards to his current role, but he has an extensive law enforcement background. Whether Newton County’s Sheriff’s Office can get their act together remains to be scene.
One thing is for certain, they need to open an investigation into Mylee’s death, and re-evaluate all the evidence and circumstances surrounding it. They need to re-interview all the people who were present at the time of her death, as well as all the various law enforcement and EMS personnel who were present following the 911 call. If they do not feel equipped to conduct the investigation, then they should reach out to the Missouri State Highway Patrol for assistance.
This case is not going away. Mylee’s voice is not going away. The people who are legitimately seeking answers are not going away.
If you have any information regarding the suspicious death of Mylee Moser, or would like to encourage law enforcement to take action on her case, please reach out to the Newton County Missouri Sheriff’s Office at (417) 451-8300. You may do so anonymously.
