On Aug. 20, DC Superior Court Judge Robert Okun scheduled a preliminary hearing to determine if a sex abuse case has enough evidence to go to trial. 

The defendant is charged with assault with intent to commit first-degree sexual abuse for allegedly exposing himself to a victim and trying to have sex with him without his consent on July 11 at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, DC’s psychiatric institution.  

The preliminary hearing is scheduled for Sept. 22.
