Man Pleads Guilty To 2017 Murder: Denver DA

DENVER, CO — Corey Davis, the man accused of murdering 42-year-old Christopher Moody on Olive Street in 2017, has pleaded guilty to murder, according to a press release from Denver District Attorney's Office.

Davis, 31, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder, with the charges having been dropped from first-degree murder.

On Nov. 6, 2017, Moody was sitting in his car in the 2100 block of N. Olive Street when he and Davis got into "a verbal exchange." Davis shot Moody, who attempted to drive away.

Moody didn't get far, however. He crashed into a parked car about a block away. Denver firefighters were responding to a call of a car accident when they found him.

Moody was taken to Denver Health Medical Center, but died of his gunshot wound, the DA's office says.

Davis will be sentenced on Sept. 27.
