Fired Michigan Coach Accused of Terrorizing Ex-Mistress in Late-Night Meltdown

A former University of Michigan football coach now stands at the center of a criminal case that prosecutors say spiraled out of a workplace affair, frantic emergency calls, and a late-night confrontation that ended with felony charges.

According to the New York Post, 🏈Sherrone Moore, 39, was arrested in Ann Arbor earlier this month after police say he broke into the home of a woman he allegedly had an ongoing relationship with — a staff member who worked closely with him.

Moore was fired by the university after the woman reported the affair on Dec. 10, ending his tenure and setting off a sequence of events that landed him in court last week.

The woman, identified in court records as executive assistant 👤Paige Shiver, had allegedly been involved with Moore for roughly two years before ending the relationship, according to testimony.

Prosecutors say that once the relationship ended, Moore escalated contact with her through calls and texts, continuing even after she went to the university to report the situation.

Two days after the firing, Shiver’s attorney, Heidi Sharp, phoned 911 on her client’s behalf, telling emergency dispatchers that Moore had allegedly forced his way inside the apartment and was threatening to take his own life.

According to transcripts read aloud in court, Sharp urgently warned dispatchers that “Moore had a long history of domestic violence against” Shiver and “that he was very dangerous.”
