A defense attorney told DC Superior Court Judge Judith Pipe she no longer wished to dismiss her client’s stabbing case after she confirmed she wasn’t missing evidence during a hearing on March 23.
Tania Murphy, 26, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for her alleged involvement in a stabbing on the 2000 block of Georgia Avenue, NW on Oct. 31, 2025.
According to court documents, a fight broke out at a bus stop that reportedly involved the victim and Murphy. After police broke up that fight, another fight broke out at a nearby parking lot where Murphy allegedly stabbed the victim in the stomach with a nail file.
During the hearing, Murphy’s attorney, Camille Wagner, stated that she no longer requested to dismiss the case for want of body camera footage from prosecutors, since there wasn’t any. .
When discussing release, Wagner requested that Murphy’s GPS monitor be removed. The judge noted that Murphy has a non-extraditable warrant, a warrant in another jurisdiction that doesn’t allow her to be arrested in DC. The prosecution argued that because of the warrant and the charges that Murphy is facing that she should not have her GPS monitor removed.
Judge Pipe ruled she would not remove Murphy’s GPS monitor until she dealt with the outstanding warrant.
Wagner also told Judge Pipe that she was waiting for a response from the prosecution about the counter plea offer she sent them, which prosecutors said they were still considering.
Parties are slated to reconvene on July 30.
