DC Superior Court Carmen McLean was notified that parties for a carjacking case were exploring the possibility of an Alford plea on Dec. 2.
Zyon Prince, 19, is charged with unarmed carjacking for his alleged involvement in stealing a moped on the 1100 block of T Street, NW, on March 24.
Prince’s attorney, Raymond Jones, and the prosecutor alerted Judge McLean that the parties were exploring the possibility of an Alford plea, which means the defendant agrees the prosecution’s evidence against him would end in a conviction, but maintains his innocence.
The parties requested additional time to concur.
Parties are slated to reconvene on Jan. 20.
