A domestic violence defendant pleaded guilty to unlawful possession of a firearm and will remain held at DC Jail as he waits sentencing.
Fate Collins, 25, was charged in May 2020 after being found in possession of a pistol despite having been previously convicted of robbery.
As part of a plea deal, parties agreed to a minimum sentence of 36 months in prison followed by a period of probation.
The prosecution also agreed not to seek any additional charges against the defendant in this case.
Judge John Campbell scheduled Collins to be sentenced on May 28.
