CLEVELAND (AP) - The divorce attorney for a woman fatally stabbed outside a Cleveland office tower has been sentenced to six months in jail after pleading guilty to lying to police about where he was when she was killed.

Aliza Sherman was stabbed near where she was supposed to meet Moore in 2013 to discuss her divorce case. Authorities say Moore falsely texted Sherman he was waiting for her in his office and told investigators the same story.

No one has been arrested for Sherman’s slaying.

In addition to pleading guilty to falsification earlier this month, Moore pleaded guilty to inducing panic for calling in bomb threats to courthouses because he wasn’t prepared for hearings

Moore said in court Tuesday that he regrets his past decisions.
