Erica Lafferty Murder Wikipedia

Moving on to Erica Lane Lafferty’s Wikipedia, she was a 15 months old toddler who was murdered by her own uncles, Ron and Dan Lafferty.

According to the court filings, on Pioneer Day 1984, Ron and Dan arrived at Brenda and Allen’s duplex with a bunch of knives, a sawed-off shotgun, and ammo.

Ron had methodically planned everything and apparently didn’t mind injuring the 15-month-old since he expected her to “grow up to be just as nasty as her mother.”

Ron Lafferty and his younger brother Dan were accused of murdering their sister-in-law Brenda Lafferty and her 15-month-old daughter Erica by slicing their throats.

What Happened To Ron And Dan Lafferty? Update 2022

Despite the fact that Ron Lafferty was mostly responsible for the senseless double murder, Dan claimed blame for the killings.

As a consequence, they were prosecuted separately, with Dan being found guilty of two charges of first-degree murder and four additional felony offenses by a jury.

Dan was subsequently sentenced to two life terms without the possibility of parole, to be served simultaneously, although he was spared the death penalty owing to a single juror’s dissent. Dan is now incarcerated in Utah State Prison’s maximum-security institution as of 2022.

Ron, on the other hand, spent 34 years on death row in Utah. In the year 2019, Ron Lafferty died of natural causes at the Draper facility.

Erica Lafferty Parents: Brenda Lafferty And Allen Lafferty

Erica Lane Lafferty’s parents Brenda Lafferty and Allen Lafferty were happy to welcome their baby girl into their lives.

Sadly, the 15 months old, Erica and her mother Brenda were murdered by Allen’s brothers, Ron and Dan Lafferty.

As per the reports,  Ron and Dan were fueled by fundamentalism, delusions of grandeur, and a childhood filled with violence.

In fact, they became infatuated by polygamy as a religious virtue, and Allen Lafferty succumbed to their sway. Ron got a “vision” from God asking him to “remove” Brenda and Erica as self-proclaimed prophets when Brenda opted to combat the notion for herself.
