A DC Superior Court judge announced April 18 that a murder defendant was transported to Maryland to address unrelated charges.
Reginald Turner is charged with second-degree murder while armed for his alleged role in the death of 37-year-old Malik Muhammad on the 800 block of Taylor Street, NE on Nov. 26, 2018.
Judge Craig Iscoe told the court clerk that Turner would be prosecuted for his charges in Maryland and then be sent back to DC to address his pending murder charge. Turner, 34, is being held without bail in Maryland.
Both counsel for the defense and the prosecution were not present in court for the hearing.
D.C. Witness previously reported that Turner is charged with attempted murder, assault and gun offenses in Maryland. Apparently, Turner’s Maryland charges stem from an incident involving a police chase.
