DC Superior Court Judge Jason Park continued the sentencing of a defendant in a stabbing incident on Feb. 21, following a family emergency.
On Nov. 8, 2024, Alexis Gray, 34, pleaded guilty to assault with a dangerous weapon for her involvement in a non-fatal stabbing of two victims on Sept. 5, 2024, at the 800 block of Chesapeake Street, SE. During this incident, Gray sustained injuries as well.
Defense attorney, Edward Gain, requested Gray’s sentencing to be continued to a later date, as they were notified that her family was in a car accident on the way to the courthouse.
The prosecution did not object but said they would object to further postponement if this happens again, as this is the defense’s second time asking to reschedule.
Parties are set to return for a sentencing hearing on March 6.
