Judge Continues Double Homicide Case Awaiting Indictment

A DC Superior Court judge continued a hearing June 16 for a double homicide case currently awaiting indictment.

Antoine Turner, 27, is charged with first-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting Demetrius Benson and Demeitri Anderson.

Benson, 24, was shot on Nov. 30, 2020, on the 4500 block of Dix Street, NE. Then, on Nov. 29, 2020, Anderson was shot 13 times on the 4500 block of Benning Road, NE. 

Parties asked Judge Rainey Brandt to continue the hearing, so the prosecution could provide the defense with indictment information and discovery evidence.

Judge Brandt scheduled the next hearing for Sept. 21.
