On April 21, judges at the DC Superior Court released 11 inmates including five that were being held at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, DC’s psychiatric institution.
Additional results from the proceedings included one defendant’s bond review hearing being delayed and three hearings, that were not in relation to emergency releases because of COVID-19, were vacated. Judges also denied the release of three inmates.
In total there were 18 defendants that had cases. A majority of the cases were for bond review hearings. You can read about each case on dcwitness.org.
None of the proceedings involved homicide defendants.
