BALTIMORE — The sixth and final suspect charged in a rideshare carjacking spree has been convicted.
Back in 2022 a group of young men, as the Maryland Attorney General put it, terrorized unsuspecting residents throughout Baltimore City and County by using Uber and Lyft apps to lure their victims.
"Victims were often forced into trunks or back seats while the defendants used the stolen vehicles and rideshare accounts to pick up and rob additional passengers," Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown said. "Some victims were held captive for hours while the defendants drained their bank accounts using ATMs and mobile payment apps."

The latest suspect convicted is 17-year-old Corique Moseley, who received a sentence of 40-years behind bars, the first 30 without parole.
During a multi-day jury trial in Baltimore County, it was revealed Moseley took part in more than four armed carjackings or armed robberies involving half-a-dozen victims.
Witnesses recalled Moseley using a handgun to threaten victims if they didn’t comply with his demands.
One female victim testified that Moseley sexually assaulted her at gunpoint.
“Corique Moseley and his co-defendants robbed, assaulted, and terrorized dozens of Marylanders, leaving lasting scars the survivors will carry for the rest of their lives,” said Brown.
The five co-defendants are Raquan Pierce, Shamar Anderson, Tre’Quon Maye, Ammar Shields, and Jamarie Ward.
Each previously pleaded guilty to participation in a criminal organization, armed carjacking, and kidnapping.
Pierce received 14 years in prison, while Anderson was sentenced to 25 years, with Maye getting 15 years.
Meanwhile, Shields got a seven year sentence, as Ward will learn his date on July 15, 2026.
In total, the group is responsible for at least 40 incidents.
