Ohio authorities have charged Gregory J. Moore, a former divorce attorney, with the murder of Aliza Sherman, a Cleveland Clinic nurse, a case that had remained unsolved since 2013. Sherman was fatally stabbed over 10 times on a sidewalk in downtown Cleveland, near where she was set to meet Moore to discuss her divorce. Moore, who previously served jail time for providing false statements to police and had his law license suspended, was arrested in Texas. The indictment suggests Moore planned Sherman's kidnapping to delay her divorce trial and later misled investigators by messaging her posthumously. The case was taken over by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation in 2021, leading to the breakthrough in the investigation, much to the relief of Sherman's family who had sought justice for over a decade.

Gregory J. Moore, a former attorney who had served jail time for lying to police about his whereabouts during the murder investigation, has now been charged with the murder of Aliza Sherman, marking a significant development in the cold case.

Aliza Sherman was killed in 2013, stabbed more than 10 times near a meeting point with Moore in downtown Cleveland, where she was supposed to discuss her divorce with him.

Moore's legal troubles began in 2017 when he pleaded guilty to falsification and admitted to calling in bomb threats to delay trials, resulting in a six-month jail sentence and the suspension of his law license.

The indictment reveals that Moore allegedly intended to kidnap Sherman as a strategy to delay her upcoming divorce trial, and he tried to mislead investigators by sending messages to Sherman after her death.

The arrest of Moore was made possible through the collaborative efforts of multiple law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, which took over the case in 2021.

Sherman's family, who have kept her memory alive through rallies and vigils, expressed their gratitude for the authorities' persistent efforts to solve the case, although they describe the development as bittersweet due to the painful memories it evokes.

Moore, who was arrested in Texas, is expected to be arraigned later, and while he has not responded to communication regarding the charges, his arrest marks a significant step towards justice for Sherman's family.
