Defendant Enters Into Deferred Sentencing Agreement

On July 17, a defendant entered into a Deferred Sentencing Agreement (DSA) with the prosecution.

Shaun Jackson pleaded guilty to carrying a pistol without a license outside a home or business.

As part of his DSA, he must complete community service requirements. If he does so by this time next year, his guilty plea will be withdrawn and his case dismissed. 

After being stopped for speeding while going west on I-395 on March 15, Jackson, a Georgia resident, told Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers he had two firearms in his car and gave the officer his Georgia concealed carry license. That license, however, did not allow him to carry a firearm in Washington, DC.
