A Gwinnett County jury sentenced Tiffany Moss, 36, Black, to death penalty for murdering 10-year-old stepdaughter in 2013. Moss was convicted Monday of starving 10-year-old Emani Moss and then, with the help of her husband Eman, trying to burn the girl’s emaciated body in a trash can. Eman Moss is serving life in prison without parole for his role in the crime, after pleading guilty to felony murder in 2015 in exchange for testifying against his wife. The jury recommended the death penalty and Gwinnett Superior Court Judge George Hutchinson signed off on Moss' sentence. Moss acted as her own lawyer in the capital case. She offered no defense, calling no witnesses and offering no opening statement or closing argument.
