Moore Receives No Early Release For 2013 Aggravated Manslaughter
An Asbury Park man was sentenced to 12 years for a March 2013 murder, Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher Gramiccioni has announced.

According to officials, Asbury Park Police responded to the corner of Bangs and Dewitt Avenues after receiving a report of multiple shots fired around 8:20 p.m. that day.

The case was prosecuted by Monmouth County Assistant Prosecutors Meghan Doyle and Emily Cartmell. Moore is represented by Mark Bailey of Newark.
