Baltimore resident Marquis Moore, 35, has been sentenced to 12 years in federal prison, followed by five years of supervised release, for committing a series of armed commercial robberies and for brandishing a firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence, they said.

As part of the guilty plea, Moore admitted that between at least November 2018 and March 2019, he participated in at least 10 robberies - nine with co-conspirators Baltimore residents Milek Rankin, 29, and Dontrell Glover, 30 - at businesses in Baltimore and surrounding areas.

Specifically, prosecutors said that Moore targeted fast-food restaurants, video game stores, cell phone stores, and discount stores in Baltimore, Baltimore County, and Anne Arundel County, brandishing a firearm in each instance.

In January 2019, Moore and Rankin robbed a cell phone store in Essex, Maryland, according to officials, with the former in possession of a loaded handgun.

When the store employee resisted giving the robbers money from the business, officials said that Moore took the magazine loaded with hollow-point bullets out of the handgun, showed it to the employee, and said, “You can see it’s loaded.  We’re not playing games.” 

The pair then fled in a getaway vehicle that was driven by Glover.

Prosecutors said that Moore admitted that he committed at least 10 additional robberies, each time brandishing a gun and often pointing the gun at employees.
