Fort Worth Man Sentenced to 35 Years for Sexually Abusing 7-Year-Old

A Fort Worth man was sentenced today to 35 years in federal prison for sexually abusing a 7-year-old girl, announced U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Texas Chad E. Meacham.

Sherman Moore, 65, pleaded guilty in November 2021 to sexual exploitation of children. He was sentenced Friday by U.S. District Judge Reed C. O’Connor.

According to plea papers, Mr. Moore admitted that in the fall of 2019, he enticed a 7-year-old child into sexually explicit conduct in order to videotape her.  

On Sept. 7, Mr. Moore recorded a video focusing on the victim’s genitals as she walked across her mother’s bed in her home in Fort Worth. He then uploaded the file to his Google Drive.

Fort Worth Police Department and Homeland Security Investigations’ Fort Worth Field Division conducted the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney Aisha Saleem prosecuted the case.
