A Deer Park man convicted for a shooting when he was 16 has been re-convicted and sentenced to prison after being released on bond in 2015 when the case was overturned.
In a long-awaited resolution, Cameron Michael Moon was sentenced to 25 years in prison for a 2008 murder in Deer Park. Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg announced the verdict late Wednesday, marking the end of a prolonged 16-year legal battle.Moon was 16 at the time of the crime, was initially convicted of murder, and sentenced to 30 years in prison two years after shooting another teen, Christopher Seabreak, on July 18, 2008.
Appellate courts should have them as well for criminal cases, and this case shows exactly why. No family should have to wait 16 years for justice"Earlier this year, the case was set for a retrial, and a jury was selected on June 28. Moon was convicted a week later, and after a brief punishment phase, he was sentenced to 25 years in prison. He must serve at least half of the sentence before becoming eligible for parole.
