A jury found a shooting defendant guilty on all eight counts in front of DC Superior Court Judge Deborah Israel on March 11.
Diamond Early, 32, was found guilty of assault with significant bodily injury while armed, assault with a dangerous weapon, simple assault, two counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, carrying a pistol without a license, possession of an unregistered firearm, and unlawful possession of ammunition for her involvement in a shooting that left one victim injured in the leg on July 31, 2023 on the 4000 block of Kansas Avenue, NW.
Throughout the trial, prosecutors provided evidence that proved Early shot at a woman after she quarreled with Early for hitting her child.
Parties are slated to reconvene June 27 for sentencing.
