Domestic Violence Case will be Resolved with Plea, Attorney Says

A DC Superior Court judge continued a domestic violence case, so the defense attorney can have more time to go over a plea deal with his client.

The defendant is charged with a felony for assault with a dangerous weapon in a domestic violence case.

During the Feb. 1 hearing, defense attorney Kevin Kassees said he is confident this case will be resolved with a plea, but he needs more time to go over the prosecution’s offer with his client and make sure he understands his rights. 

The defendant is currently being held at DC Jail, where he’s been since he Dec. 4, 2020.


The prosecution said the offer will remain open until the next hearing, which Judge James Crowell scheduled for March 5.
