JPD learned that Moy had unlawfully left the custody of his attorney. The defense attorney allegedly did not notify the police or the jail of his client’s escape.

In August, Moy was being taken to Lemon Creek Correctional Center in an Alaska State Troopers prisoner transport van when he reportedly kicked out a window and jumped from the vehicle while wearing belly chains and a Lemon Creek inmate uniform. Moy evaded capture for about 20 minutes, after which he was found hiding in an abandoned car and arrested again.

JPD is seeking Moy on multiple arrest warrants Wednesday, and is asking for the community’s assistance in locating Moy.

He’s described as an Alaska Native male, around 5’7″ tall, 175 pounds, black hair and brown eyes.

Anyone who sees Moy or has information about his location is asked to call JPD at 907-586-0600.

JPD also is reminding the public in Juneau that anyone aiding Moy while he is wanted is subject to felony criminal charges for hindering prosecution.
