Anna Moses, Robert Moses Profiled On ‘Dateline’ NBC: Russian-Born Wife Gunned Down By Ex In Texas Garage


Anna Moses, the University of Texas at Dallas employee who was found shot to death in her garage almost two years ago, is the subject of Dateline NBC’s new episode this Friday night. The Inquisitr brought you the story of Anna Moses in 2015, and it seemed like a real whodunit in the first stages of the investigation. Authorities later proved that the killer was her ex-husband, Robert Arthur Moses. Investigators will discuss the facts of the story, and the victim’s friends will speak about their relationship with her on the Dateline episode titled “Someone Was Watching.”

According to Dateline NBC’s preview, when 43-year-old Anna Moses missed date night with her boyfriend and then failed to show up for work the next day, everyone who knew her feared the worst. Their fears turned to shock and terror after Anna was found dead in her Charleston Drive garage in what looked like an ambush attack, the Dallas News reported.

“They found her dead on the floor of her garage. She had been shot six times: once in the throat, twice in the chest and three times in the back. A seventh bullet was found in her clothing. Police recovered 11 cartridge casings in the garage. Tschudy said the three shots into Anna Moses’ back were clustered together, as were the two in her chest. That suggested to him the shooter had experience with guns, he testified. Robert Moses, who had served in the U.S. Air Force decades earlier, owned several firearms.”

It didn’t look like a robbery gone wrong; to police working the case, Anna was the target. The murder happened after she arrived home from work, and her car was missing.

An autopsy report showed that she had been shot six times.

By all accounts, Anna Moses never missed work and was always available when people called her. However, according to Dateline’s episode, there was a lot that her coworkers didn’t know about the bubbly Russian-born woman.

For starters, Anna Moses had an ex-husband, 63-year-old Robert Moses, who had made life miserable for her. This was a stark contrast to the amicable relationship everyone thought Anna had with him. A locked box that contained a letter written in Russian by Anna to her attorney shed more light on what she was dealing with.

According to the contents of the letter, Robert Moses had threatened to kill himself, and he threatened to reveal some unfavorable things about Anna.

Anna’s vehicle was eventually located and blood was found inside. The tests came back a match for Robert Moses, her ex.

Robert tried to explain it all away, but police knew that finding the blood in the car was consistent with the cut that they had seen on his hand.

A search of his car turned up gun magazines that were a match to the bullets found inside Anna’s body, according to the Star Local Media, who listed the contents of the affidavit.

“Investigators began conducting surveillance on Robert, who went back to his old residence at 9626 Lance Drive and loaded his vehicle with several boxes. He left and was soon pulled over for a traffic violation, as officers noticed his car was missing the front license plate, according to the affidavit. Robert was arrested as a result of the traffic offense, and police searched his vehicle. In his trunk, officers discovered several high-capacity magazines matching the same caliber of bullet that killed Anna. These magazines were not the same ones discovered at Robert’s home during an earlier search.”

Robert Moses was charged and convicted of murder. He is currently serving out a life sentence in a Texas prison. However, his conviction does little to comfort those who love her and who’ll miss her daily presence.

Anna Moses was raised in Kazakhstan, Russia. She went on to college, where she pursued a degree in economics, according to her obituary. Later, she relocated to the United States in the late 1990s and gained her citizenship in 2004.

She’ll be remembered for her loving personality and her devotion to her son, Igor. Watch Anna Moses’ story on Dateline this Friday, December 9, at 9/8 p.m. Central on NBC. In case you missed it, the story of Erin Corwin aired on the last Dateline episode.
