Escambia Man Indicted On First Degree Murder Charge
September 14, 2011
An Escambia County man has been indicted in connection with an August murder.
A grand jury returned a first degree indictment charging 18-year old Sergio Depree Moorer with first degree murder for the death of John Daniel Hall. Hall was found on August 21 in a wooded area near the Marcus Pointe apartment complex. Last seen alive the day before, Hall had been beaten and burned beyond recognition.
Hall’s vehicle was located four days later by the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office in the Oakstead Mobile Home Park on Massachusetts Avenue. Moorer was inside the vehicle and fled on foot as deputies arrived. After a short foot chase, he was taken into custody.
Moorer remains jailed without bond and is scheduled for an arraignment hearing on Thursday.

The first degree murder charge will never stick. The state attorneys office always goes for the max charge hoping to make a plea down.
There is more to this one as we will find out during the trial.
Is the photo of a male or female? Is that the person who was arrested?
I hope to be seated in the courtroom for this one, as an observer. I never get called for jury duty on the captiol murder cases. The defense would dissmiss me, during the selection, Im sure.
