DETROIT (WWJ) – Andrew Hall, the man who confessed to a Detroit murder days after an attempted abduction in Troy, has been sentenced to an additional 40 years in prison.
Hall, 31, learned his sentence Tuesday for the attack on a woman in a Target parking lot in Troy back in July.
Authorities say around 9 p.m. on Friday, July 7 Hall forced his way into a woman's vehicle in the parking lot of the Target on Coolidge Highway near Maple Road and punched her in the face and pulled out a gun.
She said in a social media post when he ordered her not to scream and get into the back seat of her own car, she refused and instead opted to fight. She was able to get the attention of a nearby witness, who yelled at Hall and chased him out.
The same day Troy police identified Hall as a suspect, Detroit police also identified him as a murder on the city's west side.
Authorities say Hall met up with Lisa Moffett of Royal Oak at a building on McNichols, just west of Woodward Avenue, and stabbed her multiple times, leaving her body behind a building.
"He allegedly killed the victim in this case for no reason at all, simply because he wanted to," Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said at the time."
Hall pleaded guilty to the murder in September, receiving a sentence of 40-60 years in prison.
On Tuesday he was sentenced to an additional 40 years behind bars in connection with the Target attack. He pleaded guilty to armed robbery, assault, unlawful imprisonment and weapons charges.
