Cleveland Nurse’s Divorce Attorney Charged in Her Brutal Stabbing Murder
Share this @internewscast.com

The former divorce attorney for an Ohio nurse has been indicted for her murder 12 years after the fact.

Aliza Sherman, 53, was discovered with 11 stab wounds on the street outside Gregory Moore’s Cleveland law firm on March 24, 2013. Although suspicions were directed towards both Moore and her estranged husband, Dr. Sanford Sherman, no arrests occurred. Moore was jailed in 2017 after admitting to lying about his whereabouts on the night of Sherman’s murder and what were then believed to be unrelated charges of falsely reporting a bomb threat to the Cuyahoga County Old Courthouse, WKYC reported.

The 10-count indictment provided by the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office detailed a conspiracy using telecommunications for kidnapping Sherman when Moore “and at least one other unnamed individual” discovered the prosecutor’s office was probing the fake bomb threats made to the courthouse “to delay court appearances he was slated for” in 2012 and early 2013.

The indictment stated, “The purpose of Aliza Sherman’s kidnapping was to hinder Judge Rosemary Grdina Gold from proceeding with the divorce trial of Sanford Sherman v. Aliza Sherman,” planned to start on March 25, 2013. The plan aimed to prevent Aliza Sherman (“Sherman”) from attending the proceedings by inflicting severe physical harm and/or causing her death.”

The divorce case was dismissed days after Sherman’s death.

The indictment details Moore’s setting up a meeting with Sherman at his law office and her subsequent attempts to reach him once she arrived. It lists multiple texts, and notes that Moore had disconnected his phone from the cellular network and connected it with a hotspot he had obtained from his law office.

Moore arrived at the office, but left again before Sherman arrived. He didn’t answer multiple texts after 5 p.m. that day, and then, after a final text saying she was going back to her car, “an individual who was either Moore or an unknown co-conspirator approached Sherman from E. 12 St., circled behind her, chased her from 55 Erieview to 75 Erieview, and then stabbed her over ten times before running eastbound on Hamilton Avenue through the E 12 St. intersection toward E. 17 St.”

Sherman was taken to a hospital, where she died.

Meanwhile, after the assault, Moore — his phone still connected to the hotspot and not the cellular network — resumed texting Sherman, asking where she was and for her to call him.

“At the time of these communications, Moore was not inside the Stafford Law Office yet Moore knew that Sherman was not there; Moore’s phone was still unable to receive calls yet Moore knew that Sherman was not calling him,” the indictment says. “Moore knew these things because he knew Sherman was incapacitated by the assault.”

Moore did return to the law office at about 7:30 p.m. and reconnected his phone back to the cell network, whre he made more calls to Sherman’s phone “designed to continue the creation of false evidence that Moore was unaware of Sherman’s assault,” the indictment says.

Moore was arrested by US Marshals in Round Rock, Texas, on Friday, WKYC said, and is now awaiting extradition to Ohio. He is charged with aggravated murder, two counts of kidnapping, conspiracy, and six additional counts of murder.

Sherman’s family members have not yet commented about the arrest, but Jan Lash, described as her best friend, told WOIO that she was “overwhelmed with relief that we are finally getting justice for Aliza in her unsolved murder.”

“She was my dearest friend and confidant,” Lash said. “I’ve always flet that Gregory Moore was involved with Aliza’s murder.”

Sherman’s husband, the doctor, died last year.
