A defendant in a fatal shooting case waived his right to test two pieces of evidence before DC Superior Court Judge Danya Dayson on Feb. 26.
Kevin Singletary, 47, is charged with first-degree murder premeditated while armed, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, and unlawful possession of a firearm with a prior conviction for his alleged involvement in a fatal shooting of Delonte Hazel, 31, on Sept. 10, 2021 on the 100 block of Kennedy Street, NW.
Singletary’s attorney, Howard McEachern, said that Singletary had no interest in independently testing DNA from a mask and a cartridge casing recovered at the scene, with Singletary waiving his right voluntarily and knowingly.
Parties are slated to reconvene on April 11.
