Today marks the 22nd anniversary of the unsolved murder of Jack Moore, a 63-year-old Georgia resident who was fatally shot while visiting Waldorf, Maryland. His death on January 8, 2003, remains a cold case, and the Charles County Sheriff’s Office is urging the public to provide any information that could help bring his killer to justice.
On the evening of January 8, 2003, at approximately 10 p.m., Charles County Sheriff’s Office deputies responded to a shooting in the Gillespie Circle area. When officers arrived, they found Moore and a second victim suffering from gunshot wounds. Both were transported to a local hospital, but Moore later died from his injuries. The case was ruled a homicide.
The investigation revealed that Moore and the other victim were targeted in a robbery. Despite efforts over the years to identify those responsible, no arrests have been made. Law enforcement continues to seek information that could lead to a breakthrough in the case.
