DC Superior Court Judge Michael Ryan told a shooting defendant’s attorney on June 17 that he will consider a request to release the defendant if the attorney provides a written motion.
Troy Scott, 34, is charged with assault with intent to commit murder while armed, aggravated assault knowingly with a grave risk while armed, three counts of assault with a dangerous weapon, and carrying a dangerous weapon. The charges stem from Scott’s alleged involvement in a non-fatal stabbing that occurred on Aug. 5, 2024, on the 1600 block of 29th Street, SE.
When Scott’s defense attorney, Rachel Cicurel, asked Judge Ryan to release the defendant, the prosecution requested a written motion and time to respond. Judge Ryan granted the prosecution’s request.
Parties are set to reconvene on July 17.
