Maximmillion A. Moore, aged 35, tragically passed away on December 10, 2021, in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Born on August 16, 1986, in Chicago, Illinois, Maximmillion was a beloved husband and father who owned and operated his own construction company. He was known for his love of reading, writing poetry, drawing, and spending time with his family.
On the morning of December 10, 2021, at approximately 7:13 AM, police were called to the intersection of 26th Street and 23rd Avenue in Kenosha
following reports of a man firing a machine gun at a parked car. Upon arrival, officers found Maximmillion Moore inside his truck with multiple gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Surveillance footage revealed that a silver BMW 320i had approached Moore's truck, and an individual dressed in white exited the BMW and fired multiple rounds into the truck through the driver's side window. The BMW, which had been stolen from Justice, Illinois, three weeks prior, was found abandoned a few blocks away.
The investigation quickly identified Tiron M. Washington, a 33-year-old man from Zion, Illinois, as the primary suspect. Washington was accused of shooting 15 rounds into Moore's vehicle, killing him. Moore was set to testify against Washington in a felony firearms sale case in Lake County, Illinois, which is believed to be the motive behind the murder. A manhunt ensued, and Washington was eventually apprehended in Tulsa, Oklahoma, after a commuter reported seeing him transfer a handgun from his waist to his backpack on a bus. Washington was arrested and is expected to be extradited to Kenosha to face trial for the murder.
The case against Washington includes substantial evidence, such as surveillance footage showing him exiting the BMW and later getting into a dark-colored Jeep, which was also found abandoned. Additionally, a firearm matching the caliber of the shells found at the murder scene was recovered from the Jeep. Washington's ex-girlfriend, Shanta D. Davis, identified him in the surveillance footage, further corroborating his involvement in the crime.
The tragic death of Maximmillion A. Moore has left a profound impact on his family and the Kenosha community. The ongoing legal proceedings against Tiron M. Washington aim to bring justice for Moore and his loved ones.
