The Defense expressed concerns regarding the medical care provided to a homicide co-defendant before DC Superior Court Judge Todd Edelmann on Nov. 18.
Sean McFadden, 23, and Royale McGlenn Jr, 19, are charged with first-degree murder premeditated while armed for their alleged involvement in the fatal shooting of Royell Walker, 16, and Jamar Jackson, 19, that occurred on May 23 on the 4200 block of 4th Street, SE. A 14-year-old was also injured but survived.
During the hearing, McGlenn’s Attorney, Carrie Weletz, alerted the court that she had contacted chambers and submitted a medical alert because McGlenn had not been given a medical evaluation and was not receiving necessary treatment at the DC Jail. The defense stated that they have been submitting medical slips in jail and attempted to contact the facility, but have not received any response.
Judge Edelman told Weletz to forward him the email she sent, and he will send one as well to the facility.
Parties are slated to reconvene on March 19, 2026.
