A shooting defendant waived his right to a preliminary hearing of the evidence against him in a proceeding before DC Superior Court Judge Robert Hildum on July 30.
Kyre Robinson, 22, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, and unlawful possession of a firearm by a convict, for his alleged involvement in a non-fatal shooting that took place at the 1500 block of Benning Road, NE, on Dec. 16, 2024.
Robinson, represented by defense attorney Edwin Palacio, waived his right and the judge acknowledged his decision. Palacio did not argue for Robinson’s release, and he will remain detained until further notice pre-trial.
Parties are slated to reconvene Sept. 22.
