As plea negotiations continue, DC Superior Court Judge Judith Pipe denied to modify the release conditions of a shooting defendant on Nov. 7.
Donnell Hannah, 26, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for his alleged involvement in a shooting incident on July 21 on the 800 Southern Ave, SE. Hannah and another individual allegedly fired gunshots before stealing the victim’s car.
During the hearing, parties informed the court that they are still working on a plea agreement and would need more time.
Hannah’s defense attorney, Russell Hairston, requested his client’s GPS monitoring be removed as he has been in compliance with the requirements from the Pretrial Services Agency (PSA).
Judge Pipe denied the request and informed counsel that if Hannah continues to be compliant when parties reconvene, then she would grant the motion.
Parties are set to reconvene on Jan. 14, 2025.
