After an extensive investigation, Moody and his second wife, Susan McBride, were arrested on July 13, 1990. McBride was released on $250,000 bail within a week and later testified against Moody. 

Moody was executed by lethal injection on April 19, 2018 in Escambia County, Alabama at the age of 83. He became the oldest death row inmate to be executed in modern United States history.
