A stabbing defendant accepted a plea deal before DC Superior Court Judge Judith Pipe on Feb. 24.
William Brock, 33, was originally charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for his involvement in a stabbing at the DC Jail on the 1900 block of D Street, SE on Jan. 22. The incident left one individual with cuts on multiple parts of the body and was treated at a nearby hospital.
Brock’s attorney, Atiq Ahmed, alerted Judge Pipe Brock his client planned to accept a plea extended by the prosecution.
Through the deal, Brock pled guilty to attempted assault with a dangerous weapon. In exchange, the prosecution agreed to not seek an indictment.
Parties are slated to reconvene on March 28.
