Kenneth Moore, 45, of Clarksville, Tennessee, has been charged with robbing three women in Clarksville, Tennessee, brandishing a weapon during the robberies, and being a felon in possession of a firearm, announced Henry C. Leventis, United States Attorney for the Middle District of Tennessee.

Charging documents and other publicly available information allege that on three separate occasions between October 2023 and February 2024, Moore arranged dates with women in Clarksville and subsequently robbed, raped, beat and pistol-whipped them. All three victims were treated for their injuries at local hospitals.

Moore was arrested by Clarksville Police Department officers on February 29, 2024. He was indicted by a federal grand jury in the Middle District of Tennessee on July 17, 2024, and had his initial appearance in federal court in Nashville on August 16, 2024.

If convicted, Moore faces a mandatory minimum of seven years and up to life in federal prison on the weapons charges, up to twenty years on the robbery charges, and up to fifteen years on the felon in possession of a firearm charge. If Moore is determined to be an armed career criminal, he faces between fifteen years and life in prison.

This case was investigated by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Clarksville Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kathryn Risinger and Monica R. Morrison are prosecuting the case.

An indictment is merely an accusation. The defendant is considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
