A defense attorney requested that his client’s hearing be rescheduled so he can meet with him beforehand.
Khamari Perkins, 19, is charged with the first-degree murder of Naseem Simpson, 18, who died from a gunshot wound March 26 on the 3000 block of 14th Street, NW.
Defense attorney Kevann Gardner told DC Superior Court Judge Julie Becker that he is scheduled to meet with Perkins on July 6.
Judge Becker scheduled a new hearing for July 8.
