A DC Superior Court judge continued a June 25 status hearing for a homicide case to September after the prosecution said they anticipate having an indictment ready by then.
Ernest Cleveland, 27, is charged with second-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting of 39-year-old Edward Pearson on Nov. 26, 2020, on the 2900 block of Connecticut Avenue, NW. The defendant is also charged with assault with a dangerous weapon and assault with intent to kill.
Judge Milton Lee scheduled the next hearing for Sept. 9.
