A DC Superior Court judge released a defendant in his two domestic violence cases.
The defendant is charged with simple assault in his first case and contempt in his second case. He was initially released in both cases, but was held on Sept. 2. A notice of noncompliance was filed on Aug. 26.
During the Sept. 15 hearing, Judge John McCabe decided to release the defendant on his promise to return to court. However, the defendant must wear a GPS monitoring device and has orders to stay away from the victim.
The defendant must also report to the Pretrial Services Agency (PSA.)
The defendant’s had a remote hearing on Sept. 16 and is scheduled for a hearing on Nov. 10.
