Judges from the DC Superior Courthouse released two defendants on June 2.

Isaac Spencer was placed on probation for 18 months for charges connected to a domestic violence case.

Devon Greenfield was released from jail after he violated parole in March. He also had a domestic violence case.

Judge Rainey Brandt continued Olivia Cartwright-Cole’s hearing to give her more time to comply with release conditions. Cole is charged with second-degree murder for allegedly stabbing Joel Midgett in 2015.

A murder trial did not happen, and eight citation hearings that were slated for June 2 were rescheduled to August.
