Corique Moseley Gets 40 Years to Serve in Baltimore Rideshare Carjacking Case

How did prosecutors say stolen driver accounts were used?

The attorney general’s office described how the group used stolen driver accounts in late 2022 and early 2023. That description is not a statement of how Uber or Lyft check drivers or riders now.

The attorney general’s office announced charges against six teenagers on July 10, 2024. Prosecutors said the group began booking Uber and Lyft rides, then used guns to take the drivers’ cars. Some drivers were forced into the trunk or back seat.

“The group would then use the driver’s Uber and Lyft accounts to accept fares, and then rob and/or kidnap the would-be riders,” the July 2024 announcement said. “Some of their victims were kept locked in the trunks of the vehicles for hours as the group drove around Baltimore City and Baltimore County picking up and robbing additional victims.”

“In total, the group is known to be responsible for at least 40 incidents,” the office said, and “At least 46 citizens of Baltimore and the surrounding areas were victimized by this group of teens.” The investigation was led by the FBI – Baltimore Violent Crimes Task Force with the Baltimore Police Department, the Baltimore County Police Department and the attorney general’s Organized Crime Unit.

Where do account checks show up in another case?

RideClaim.co reported on rider verification in the Philip Kim Lyft case in Texas. That page is a separate report. It does not describe how the Baltimore defendants used accounts in 2022 and 2023, and it does not describe present-day Uber or Lyft security practices.

The guilty pleas

The office’s December 11, 2025 and May 4, 2026 releases list the five pleas, each entered before Judge Cahill in Baltimore County Circuit Court:

• Raquan Pierce pleaded guilty on June 9, 2025. “On September 17, 2025, Pierce was sentenced to 30 years of incarceration, suspending all but 14 years to serve in prison, the first 5 years without the possibility of parole, with 5 years of supervised probation upon release.”
• Shamar Anderson pleaded guilty on June 11, 2025. “On September 17, 2025, Anderson was sentenced to 30 years of incarceration, suspending all but 25 years to serve in prison, the first 5 years without the possibility of parole, with 5 years of supervised probation upon release.”
• Tre’Quon Maye pleaded guilty on July 30, 2025. “On September 17, 2025, Maye was sentenced to 30 years of incarceration, suspending all but 15 years to serve in prison, the first 5 years without the possibility of parole, with 5 years of supervised probation upon release.”
• Ammar Shields pleaded guilty on May 20, 2025. “On January 13, 2026, Shields was sentenced to 25 years of incarceration, suspending all but 7 years to serve in prison, the first 5 years without the possibility of parole, with 5 years of supervised probation upon release.”
• Jamarie Ward pleaded guilty on December 1, 2025, “to participation in a criminal organization, two counts of armed carjacking, two counts of kidnapping, and one count of use of a firearm in the commission of a crime of violence.” The May 4, 2026 attorney general release said sentencing was scheduled for July 15, 2026. That release did not report a sentence. As of November 10, 2026, any sentence from that date is unverified.

The Moseley trial

“The final defendant, Corique Moseley, 17, of Baltimore City, was convicted by a jury on December 8, 2025, following a multi-day trial in Baltimore County Circuit Court,” the attorney general’s office announced. Its May 2026 release said: “In December 2025, Moseley was convicted of 31 counts after a six-day jury trial.” The Baltimore County Courtroom Observer reported that the jury found him guilty of 30 charges related to 11 incidents.

“Moseley was convicted of third-degree sexual offense by force or threat of force for his role in that incident,” the May release said, describing an attack in which two people were carjacked and kidnapped at gunpoint. “Moseley was a minor at the time of the offenses,” the office said.

At trial, Moseley’s attorney, Assistant Public Defender Kim McGee, “told jurors that a co-defendant, not Moseley, committed the sex offense,” the Courtroom Observer reported.

The sentence

“Moseley is subject to 5 years of supervised probation upon release and must register as a sexual offender for life,” the attorney general’s office said.

At the sentencing hearing, Assistant Attorney General Nancy Frigo said some victims were so traumatized they moved out of the city, others lost their jobs when their cars were stolen and several were too afraid to testify, the Courtroom Observer reported. “These are life-changing things that happen to people,” Judge Robert Cahill said.

Moseley told the court: “I did things because I was seeking love from the wrong people who I thought were my friends.” He “told the judge he takes full accountability for his actions and apologized for the pain he caused to the victims and to his family,” the Courtroom Observer reported. His mother, Stephanie Mills, described his long history of mental illness and a difficult childhood.

“Moseley’s sentence was the longest of the six co-defendants,” the Courtroom Observer reported.
