DC Superior Court Judge Carmen McLean rescheduled sentencing for a stabbing defendant to allow the defense attorney to review the pre-sentencing report in a hearing on March 13.
Anthony Nowlin, 31, pleaded guilty on Jan. 13 to assault with a dangerous weapon for his involvement in a stabbing that wounded a juvenile in the L’Enfant Plaza Metro Station, located on the 600 block of Maryland Avenue, SW, on Aug. 26, 2025. The victim’s fingers were cut in the incident.
According to Derrick Page, Nowlin’s attorney, the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA) filed the pre-sentence report four days late, and did not notify him when it was done. The conclusions could influence the severity of the sentence for this offense which under the voluntary guidelines could be as much as ten years in prison.
As a result, Page asked for more time to meet with his client and discuss the findings.
Parties are slated to reconvene for sentencing on April 21.
