A DC Superior Court judge released an inmate, so he could take care of another matter.
Marcus Thomas is charged with possession with the intent to distribute a controlled substance.
Judge Neal Kravitz released Thomas on personal recognizance in order to take care of a parole detainer for a case stemming from a 2016 distribution of a controlled substance charge. Kravitz said he would impose a hold on Thomas once he took care of the detainer.
Thomas also tested positive for COVID-19.
Another bond review review hearing is scheduled May 6.
