Sharon Denise Moore, 25, was found dead on Weakley Street in Memphis on August 15, 1988. Her cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds. The investigation initially led to the arrest of 39-year-old Larry Eugene Ward, who was charged with second-degree murder after a separate incident in which he fired a shotgun at a police officer.

Later in 1988, a series of related shootings in Memphis were tied to James Antonio Barnes. After surviving victims identified Barnes, he was arrested on November 10, 1988, and later confessed to several murders, including the killing of Sharon Denise Moore. Charges against Ward were dropped following Barnes’s confession.

Barnes eventually pleaded guilty to three counts of second-degree murder as part of a plea deal and received a 40-year sentence. Does anyone have information about Sharon Denise Moore or her life in Memphis that could add to the record?
