Court document reveals details in Ashley Guillory case
Ashley Guillory’s remains were found in Fort Bend County in late September.
…
Details were reported in a Sept. 29 charging document issued to initiate criminal charges against Willie Brown, 48 -- the man accused of killing Guillory.
Investigators said security footage from Fondren Inn shows Ashley renting a room on Sept. 4. On the video, Brown and Ashley are seen entering the hotel room together for the last time at 11:18 p.m. At 12:47 p.m., Brown is seen leaving the motel alone using Ashley’s car. He returns to the hotel at 1:48 a.m. Sept. 5 and is seen unsuccessfully trying to enter the hotel room. Security footage recorded at 6:22 a.m. shows Brown shattering a window to gain entry into the room. Minutes later,
he’s seen lugging a heavy object investigators believe to be Ashley’s body, into the back seat of Ashley’s car, the charging document reads. Two minutes later, Brown is seen leaving the motel in Ashley’s vehicle. As the vehicle moves under the security camera, a
pair of human feet are seen sticking out of the rear driver’s window.
According to the document, a member of Ashley Guillory’s family received a text message from Ashley’s phone after she had gone missing. The family members told investigators the text messages read “
SHE DEAD,” and “I KILLED HER.”
Willie Pat Brown told an acquaintance he had killed Ashley by strangling her to death during a conversation on Friday, Sept. 10.
On Sept. 12, Ashley’s husband found her vehicle; Brown had been driving it.
Come Sept. 25, investigators re-interviewed Brown.
During another interview on Sept, 28, Brown told detectives he lied about where he dumped Ashley’s body and later led detectives to the location where he actually took her -- a wooded area near the 800 block of South Craven’s Road, according to the charging document.
