Court sends Scottsbluff man to prison on second-degree murder charges

SCOTTSBLUFF - A Scottsbluff man is scheduled to spend the rest of his life in prison after he was found guilty of killing a 23-year-old man.
Gregory Moore, 54, was sentenced to 90 years to life in prison for stabbing and killing Fernando Camacho McBride during an altercation in November 2020. Moore was arrested on Nov. 25, 2020 when authorities found the body of Camacho-McBride inside Moore’s apartment.
An arrest affidavit filed by police says officers were sent to the apartment on a report of disturbance that had lasted hours. Moore answered the door when officers arrived, cracking the door only slightly, the affidavit said. Even so, officers reported they could see he was covered in blood.
Police said that when they asked him to open the door wider, they could see what appeared to be a man dead on the floor lying in a pool of blood. Police said the body was that of Camacho-McBride and that he had suffered several stab wounds. Police reported that they recovered a bloody knife at the scene. Furniture had been knocked over, and it appeared a struggle had taken place in the apartment, police said.
On Friday, the court handed down 80 years to life for second-degree murder and 10-20 years for the use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony charge.
