At Rest

Deadly force
By reports Moore was desperate and distraught over the end of his marriage, and had recently stalked and threatened his estranged wife. He'd also talked of killing himself. Not long after county officers arrived in the late evening, four deputies and a sergeant located him with a flashlight and shot at him a total of 53 times. Thirteen of those shots struck and killed him.
