Enrico Andre Moss, the last of five co-defendants charged in a Lynchburg area man’s October 2020 slaying, was sentenced to 60 years in prison Thursday, the most extensive punishment handed down in all the combined cases prosecuted over the past year.
A jury found Enrico Andre Moss, 32, guilty on the murder charge and one count each of abduction, arson, conspiracy to commit abduction for money or benefit, conspiracy to commit arson, concealing or altering a dead body, conspiring to conceal a body and destruction of property during a trial in January. Moss was scheduled for sentencing Thursday in Appomattox Circuit Court but Jason Anthony, his attorney, said he was not prepared to go forward due a recent conflict with Moss.
