A defendant pleaded guilty to destruction of property less than $1,000 and unlawful entry into private property on June 17.
Anthony Ellis previously pleaded not guilty to these charges on March 16.
Ellis and his defense attorney, Claudine Harrison, entered into a deferred sentencing agreement with the prosecution. The agreement requires Ellis to complete anger management counseling along with mental health, drug and alcohol assessments and treatment over the course of five months.
DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan accepted the agreement, telling Ellis that he must comply with the conditions and appear at future court dates. Judge Raffinan said failure to do so would result in a bench warrant.
Ellis is scheduled for sentencing with his co-defendant, Alonozo Coleman, on Nov. 17.
