CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – City Dogs Cleveland said the kennel is “very full” again after the holiday weekend.

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – The former Cleveland divorce attorney accused of killing his client, Aliza Sherman, over a decade ago was brought back to Ohio on Saturday.

Gregory Moore, 51, waved his extradition hearing earlier this month. Cuyahoga County had 30 days to transport Moore to the Cuyahoga County Jail.

According to Cuyahoga County officials, Moore is in the Cuyahoga County Jail as of Saturday.

Cuyahoga County officials said they will release more information soon.

Sherman was Gregory Moore’s client. She was brutally stabbed when she went to his office on Erieview Plaza in downtown Cleveland for an appointment on March 24, 2013.

After she was attacked, Sherman managed to call police and a good Samaritan who found her lying on the sidewalk also called police.

Sherman was transported to a nearby hospital where she died from her injuries.

Her murder went unsolved until May 2, when a Cuyahoga County Grand Jury secretly indicted Moore on the charges of aggravated murder, conspiracy, six counts of murder, and two counts of kidnapping.

“Since receiving the request in June of 2021 to lead the Aliza Sherman cold case investigation, BCI’s agents have spent thousands of hours applying advanced technology and implementing investigative techniques to help solve this homicide,” Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said. “BCI is grateful for the family’s trust, patience, and confidence in our investigation that led to today’s indictment and arrest.”

Moore previously spent six months in jail for lying to detectives about being inside his office building at the time of the murder.

Aliza Sherman’s best friend, Jan Lash, released a statement to 19 News after the arrest:
