DC Superior Court Judge Heide Herrmann granted a carjacking defendant’s motion to waive his preliminary hearing on July 16.
Larry Fisher, 31, is charged with armed carjacking for his alleged involvement in a carjacking that took place on Feb. 27 on the 1500 block of Pennsylvania Avenue, SE.
According to court documents, Fisher and another individual struck a DoorDash driver in the face and brandished a gun while he was on his moped picking up an order from McDonald’s. The other individual then got onto the bike and fled the scene.
Fisher fled on foot, as per court documents.
During the hearing, Fisher’s defense attorney, John Sample, alerted the court of his intent to waive his preliminary hearing.
Judge Herrmann accepted the waiver.
Sample did not request release as Fisher is currently serving a “pretty lengthy sentence,” of three years for unauthorized use of a vehicle, as detailed in court documents which also indicate around the time of the carjacking he was on supervised release.
Parties will reconvene on Aug. 1.
