On Nov. 30, defendant Antonio Jackson rejected a plea offer in connection to a 2018 homicide.
Jackson, 37, is charged with first-degree murder while armed and carrying a dangerous weapon outside a home or business, for his alleged involvement in the stabbing of 52-year-old Maria Antoinette Evans on Mar. 29, 2018 on the 500 block of Oakwood Street, SE.
According to court documents, Jackson stabbed Evans 19 times.
Jackson rejected a plea offer that would require him to plead guilty to one count of second-degree murder in exchange for the dismissal of all other charges.
Parties are expected back on Apr. 12 before DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan.
