Former Cleveland Attorney Gregory Moore Posts $2M Bond in 2013 Aliza Sherman Murder Case

Gregory Moore, a former divorce attorney, posted a $2 million surety bond following his indictment for the 2013 murder of his client, Aliza Sherman. Sherman, a 53-year-old nurse, was stabbed multiple times outside Moore’s law office in Cleveland, allegedly as part of a premeditated plan to delay her divorce trial. Prosecutors allege Moore lured Sherman to his office under false pretenses and that he, or an accomplice, attacked her, then attempted to cover up the crime by deleting surveillance footage and voicemails. Moore has pleaded not guilty to charges including aggravated murder, conspiracy, murder, and kidnapping, and has been held in custody since his arrest in Texas in May before being extradited to Ohio. The case was reopened after new investigative techniques by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigations led to Moore’s indictment, revealing a history of trial delay tactics and deception. Moore’s trial is scheduled to begin in March 2026, with a pretrial conference set for July 9.
