A DC Superior Court judge continued a hearing May 4 to allow a defendant to get the neccessary testing in order to enter a treatment facility.

Raekwon Sutton is serving 18 months of probation after pleading guilty to simple assault, attempted threats to do bodily harm, destruction of property less than $1,000 and unlawful entry of private property on Dec. 4, 2018.

Judge Michael O’Keefe continued the hearing to allow Sutton time to take tests so he could enter a treatment facility. D.C. Witness was not able to verify the types of tests Sutton would take, nor the treatment facility he is trying to get in to.

A probation show cause hearing is scheduled for May 6.
