On Aug. 10, a defendant pleaded guilty to assault with a dangerous weapon.
As part of a plea agreement with the prosecution, Cordell Simms’ other charges of carrying a pistol without a license, simple assault, contempt, destruction of property and bail violation were dropped.
At the victim’s request, Judge Juliet McKenna modified the stay away order to an order not to Harass, Assault, Threaten, or Stalk (HATS) the victim.
D.C. Witness reported that Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers found Simms in a stolen car with 25 rounds of ammunition.
Simms is scheduled to be sentenced on Oct. 2.
