On August 10, Dominick Jackson pleaded not guilty to all charges connected to a non-fatal shooting.
Jackson, 38, is charged with one count of assault with a dangerous weapon, one count of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm for his alleged involvement in a domestic squabble that resulted in a non-fatal shooting.
The incident occurred on November 20, 2022, on the front of the 700 block of 12th Street, NE, and left one adult male victim suffering from gunshot wounds.
According to court documents, eight gunshots were heard and four shell casings were discovered at the scene. Responding officers from the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) noticed damage to a vehicle, and learned that there was one victim who was transported to a local hospital for the treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
At the hospital, the victim identified the shooter as Jackson to MPD officers.
Kevin Robertson, Jackson’s defense attorney, asked DC Superior Court Judge Lynn Leibovitz to alter Jackson’s release conditions. He requested Jackson be taken off GPS monitoring, which Judge Leibovitz denied.
The next hearing is set for Aug. 31.
