A DC Superior Court judge rescheduled a status hearing from Feb. 24 to March 22.

The defendant allegedly cornered and sexually assaulted the victim on a bus on Oct. 6, 2020. He is charged with kidnapping and assault with intent to commit first-degree sexual abuse. 

The defendant was originally released under the High Intensity Supervision Program (HISP), but failed to appear in court and is now being held at DC Jail.
