On July 7, a first-degree murder defendant’s trial date was extended to anticipate a March 2025 start.
Mark Price, 28, is charged with first-degree murder for his alleged involvement in the murder of 47-year-old Andre Hakim Young on July 30, 2018 at the 1500 block of 19th Street, NE. Detectives responded to a shooting with two victims, one of whom survived.
Parties agreed that it would be best to try another pending murder charge against Price first. He’s also accused for his alleged involvement as the getaway driver in the murder of 10-year-old Makiyah Wilson.
Four of ten defendants in that case were found guilty of all charges on June 13.
DC Superior Court Judge Robert Okun vacated the original trial date and scheduled jury selection for Price’s murder in the Wilson case on Mar. 17, 2025.
Parties are scheduled to return Aug 16, 2024 for a status hearing.
