Robert Leigh Moore has been sentenced to 21 years in state prison after pleading no contest to voluntary manslaughter in the killing of Bay City Alternators owner Aristeo Zambrano. Zambrano, 68, was shot inside his Oakland shop in February 2024 during an argument over a car battery.
According to The Mercury News, the plea agreement dropped an original murder charge and gives Moore credit for roughly 615 days he had already served.
