On Sept. 1, Celot Carr was arraigned in a homicide case before DC Superior Court Judge Anthony Epstein.
Carr, 24, is charged with first-degree murder while armed for his alleged connection to the killing of 18-year-old Kyndall Myers on June 26, 2022, on the 800 block of Quincy Street, NW.
Prior to Carr’s arraignment, Judge Epstein alerted the parties that, through a report, doctors from the Department of Behavioral Health (DBH) notified the judge that Carr had been found competent to stand trial.
Stephen Logerfo, Carr’s defense attorney, alerted the court Carr was pleading not guilty and asserted his rights to a speedy trial.
A trial date was set for Feb. 3, 2025.
Parties are expected back before Judge Epstein on Jan. 24, 2024 for a trial readiness hearing.
