Teen Sentenced To Decades In Prison Over 2022 Carjackings

BALTIMORE COUNTY, MD — Corique Moseley, an 18-year-old who was part of a carjacking ring in 2022, was sentenced to 75 years in prison, with all but 40 years suspended.

A release issued by the Office of the Maryland Attorney General details Moseley was sentenced last Monday in the Baltimore County Circuit Court.

For the first 30 years of the sentence, Moseley will not be able to apply for parole. He is also required to register as a sex offender for life and serve five years of supervised probation after being released.

He was convicted in December on 31 charges that included participating in a criminal organization, armed carjacking and robbery, theft scheme, kidnapping, and first-degree assault, among other offenses.

“This sentence delivers justice to the victims whose lives were upended by this senseless violence and underscores that our Office will not tolerate the kind of brutality that shatters lives and erodes the safety every Marylander deserves," Attorney General Anthony Brown said in a release.

“Corique Moseley and his co-defendants robbed, assaulted, and terrorized dozens of Marylanders, leaving lasting scars the survivors will carry for the rest of their lives."

The sentencing stems from a series of carjackings, robberies and kidnappings that took place in late 2022.

Investigators said Moseley and five others — Raquan Pierce, Shamar Anderson, Tre’Quon Maye, Ammar Shields, and Jamarie Ward — used Uber and Lyft apps to lure unsuspecting drivers before carjacking them at gunpoint. After the drivers were either forced into the truck of their car or the back seat, the group used the vehicle to carry out robberies.

At trial, officials presented evidence that showed Moseley had taken part in at least four incidents, one of which saw the teenager force a woman at gunpoint to perform multiple sexual acts.

Moseley was previously facing over 400 years in prison, according to the attorney general's office.

Of the six individuals, Ward is the final individual still awaiting sentencing. He is scheduled to appear in court on July 15.
