In an Aug. 7 hearing, a homicide defendant accepted a plea proffered by prosecutors in the case.
Ch’Juan Robinson, 26, was charged with first-degree murder while armed, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, and two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm with a prior crime of violence for his alleged involvement in shooting 32-year-old Louis Kingsbury on Apr. 29, 2020 at the 200 block of New York Avenue, NW.
At the hearing, DC Superior Court Judge Michael O’Keefe presented the offer allowing Robinson to plead guilty to voluntary manslaughter and unlawful possession of a firearm with a prior crime of violence. The remaining charges would be dropped.
After waiving his right to a trial, Robinson accepted the plea offer.
His sentencing will occur on Dec. 1.
