A DC Superior Court judge decided June 3 to place a defendant under home confinement.
DeAngelo Thomas is charged with assault on a police officer and assault with significant bodily injury.
As part of Thomas’ release conditions for the felony charge, he will have to wear a GPS monitor and cannot leave his sister’s house.
Judge Anita Josey-Herring also put Thomas on personal recognizance for his misdemeanor cases. In 2019 he was charged with simple assault and attempted threats to do bodily harm. In 2020 he was also charged with disorderly conduct for disrupting a public building and intoxication.
Thomas is not permitted to leave his sister’s house unless he is instructed to leave by the organization.
The defendant filed an emergency motion for release because of the pandemic on May 27.
