According to the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office, 40-year-old Frederick Moore hit and killed a pedestrian while he was driving out of the Eastport Plaza shopping center on Southeast 82nd Avenue on June 6, 2022.
He then tried to run over another man, Todd Henderson, who had witnessed the incident.
Henderson told KOIN 6 News he yelled at Moore, saying the person who was hit was dead.
“The victim was run over, he went under the wheels, he dragged him across the street, he was screaming and there were sparks that were flying because he had a basket with him,” he recalled.
The pedestrian, identified as 42-year-old Vincent Timothy, died from his injuries.
Moore was arrested the following day.
On March 14, he was found guilty on multiple charges, including first-degree manslaughter, attempted second-degree murder, two counts of failure to perform duties of a driver to an injured person, as well as attempted assault.
“It was an incredibly violent act– hitting someone with your truck then aiming for a witness who shouted at you, is shocking,” said Multnomah County Senior Deputy District Attorney Kristen Kyle-Castelli, who prosecuted the case. “We still don’t have a reason for why this happened. It leaves the family with a lot of questions. The fact that he is already a convicted murderer whose sentence ended in 2018, just four years before this incident is astounding.”
After testimony from the victim’s family, Moore was sentenced to 10 years for first-degree manslaughter and 7.5 years for second-degree attempted manslaughter. The sentence also encompassed the remaining charges.
According to court documents, Moore was previously convicted of second-degree murder as a teenager in 1998 after he and three other teens killed Anthony Genzale in Washington. He received a 17-year prison sentence.
