He was being held at Santa Rita Jail on Wednesday without bail on suspicion of murder and other charges, Smith said.on July 8, 2019, in the parking lot of a Taco Bell restaurant on Stanley Boulevard.

Attempts to reach Moseby’s family early Wednesday were not successful but in Smith’s statement, his father, Earl Moseby Jr., thanked Livermore police “for never giving up and for bringing us into the next chapter of closure.” He called it “a long process.” Police said Tellez and Moseby argued over something before Tellez pulled out a gun and shot Moseby in the abdomen. Moseby died the next day.
