After considering release for murder defendant, a DC Superior Court judge ultimately decided to issue a bench warrant for a murder defendant.
Gary Proctor, 47, is charged with first-degree murder while armed, possessing a firearm during a crime of violence, unlawfully possessing a firearm during a crime of violence, carrying a pistol outside a home or business, and unlawful possessing ammunition in connection to the murder of his cousin, Jerome Diggs, 42. The victim died on Jul. 27, 2015, on the 1300 block of First Street, SW in his home.
DC Superior Court Judge Dayna Dayson issued the warrant to hold Proctor until his next hearing because he also has a case in Maryland.
Judge Dayson scheduled a status hearing on March 9.
