Judge Schedules Hearing to Consider A Domestic Violence Defendant’s Release

A DC Superior Court judge scheduled a hearing to consider releasing a domestic violence defendant. 

The defendant is charged with felony assault with intent to kill while armed. He is accused of trying to kill a victim with a motor vehicle. 

The defendant was charged on May 27, and has been held at DC Jail since then.

Defense attorney Donald Dworsky filed a motion for his client’s release on Sept. 8. During the Sept. 17 hearing, Judge Robert Okun scheduled a bond review hearing to discuss the motion for Oct. 19.

Dworsky previously requested the defendant’s release during a July 2 hearing. The request was denied.
