Co-Defendants in Jail Stabbing Case Consider Plea Deals 

The attorneys for both defendants in a stabbing case notified DC Superior Court Judge Deborah Israel on June 17 that they would consider plea deals before their next hearing. 

Raghee Jordan, 35, and Antonio Kingsbury, 38, are charged with aggravated assault while armed and assault with a dangerous weapon. The charges stem from their alleged involvement in a stabbing that occurred at the DC Jail on the 1900 block of D Street, SE, on Oct. 29, 2025.

When referring to the plea deals available to both defendants, Kingsbury’s attorney, Brandon Burrell, noted that the “situations aren’t exactly the same.”.

Jordan has a global plea deal available that would resolve multiple cases, as he has two other pending cases against him. 

The prosecution has also presented a wired plea deal that would require both defendants’ acceptance, but Burrell noted that he would like to unwire it once they are closer to the next hearing date. 

Judge Israel let both parties know that they should have the paperwork ready prior to the next hearing date, if they choose to move forward with a plea deal. 

Parties are slated to reconvene on July 16.
