Alot of good people do very bad things. Good or bad they must pay for the crime. I do hate it "only" for the kids. Mr. Moore knows right from wrong. I do hope that others that are in his situation or simular to it will see and understand that you only get but so "high" and you must fall.

Why is it that when one of these criminals gets caught, that his relatives are always going on and on and on about how hes a good boy. He aint never bothered nobody.The police just out to get him because of who he is.Or then if the police ask them anything , they dont know nothing about nobody.Then the next day, they're bellyaching about how the police dont do anything in thier neighborhood. The police just doesnt care about them. Would someone who can speak the English language please explain this mentality to me.

It took six years because we were getting all of the people that he was dealing with. He didn't know it but he was helping us get other drug dealers. He will go away for a long long time.

I understand you do the crime, you do the time but what I don't understand is that we have people who do armed robbery and who attempt murder and other things that are more outragous but I've never seen there bond be 1,000,000.

let this serve as notice to the k town drug dealers and dopers, the heat is on.Good job Law enforcement. Hope the judge and jury do their parts now. IF the man is guilty ( and it would seem so if they have 6 years of evidence) hope he gets life. To the public who tolerate theses chumps, grow a pair and start turning them in , they are not good guys, they are destroying America.Call crimestoppers they will pay you for info that will help protect our kids.And to the one about to assume this guys role as top dog drug pusher, you are already known and going down fool

I knew this man also, and it does matter if you are committing a crime that you know is wrong. My thing is KPD did a six year investigation and he is under a 1 million dollar bond!!-doesnt make since, he should not have had a bond! And for the niece-He played himself by thinking he could get away with a crime!

I Knew him personally and he was a very good person. It is just sad that all this is happening to him. I wish the best to his family, especially his two kids.

Nobody will try to "play him". "Point blank simple" is this- Do the crime, do the time. Now that is POINT BLANK SIMPLE. You feel me?

He's a man that sells drugs. Drugs take away peoples lives, much less the drama those peoples kids go through. You're right, he's not a bad man! THANK YOU Moya V. Moore for what you do!!!!!!!!!

I cann't believe that it took 6 years to but one guy, just think of all that tax payer money and man hours that was wasted over a 6 year time period, That sucks!
