Murder Defendant to be Indicted Within Six Months

During a felony status conference on Dec. 12, a prosecutor said she expects to indict a murder defendant before the nine month indictment deadline expires in June.

Kavon Young, 29, is charged with first-degree felony murder for allegedly shooting 66-year-old John Pernell on the 3000 block of Nelson Place, SE on July 3, 2010.

The prosecutor said she does not anticipate any delays and everything is proceeding as expected with the grand jury.


DC Superior Court Judge Todd Edelman scheduled another felony status conference for Young on March 13, 2020.
