A DC Superior Court judge gave a defendant time to complete a 28-day in-patient drug treatment program.
Nicole McCray is on probation for driving under the influence and driving while impaired. McCray was not present for her Aug. 25 hearing because she is at the program.
Defense attorney Daniel Dorsey said he believes his client will receive outpatient care once she’s done.
“McCray needs treatment, I’m happy that she’s been accepted to a drug treatment program,” Judge Rainey Brandt said.
McCray was sentenced to two years of probation for her charges on April 11, 2019.
Judge Brandt scheduled another show cause hearing for Oct. 13. to assess the patient’s progress.
