DC Superior Court Judge Rainey Brandt issued a medical alert for a non-fatal shooting defendant during a status hearing on Nov. 20.
Marcus Martin, 29, is charged with assault with intent to kill while armed, aggravated assault knowingly while armed, two counts of 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 non-fatal shooting that wounded one individual on the 4200 block of East Capitol Street, NE, on Jan. 11, 2024.
Defense attorney Quo Meiko Judkins asked Judge Brandt to request the Department of Corrections (DOC) transfer Martin from the Central Detention Facility (CDF) to the lower security Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF). The request followed Martin’s hospitalization after being attacked on the transport bus to the courthouse. Martin alleged he is still suffering from pain in his side.
Judge Brandt issued a medical alert and is submitting a request he be moved to CTF.
Trial is set for Feb. 23, 2026.
Parties are slated to reconvene Jan. 23.
