On Sept. 29 Defendant Aaron Murchison was arraigned before DC Superior Court Judge Marisa Demeo and pleaded not guilty to three charges.
Murchison, 27, is charged with one count of second-degree murder while armed, one count of possession of a firearm while armed, and one count of unlawful possession of a firearm for his alleged involvement in the fatal shooting of 32-year-old Jamontate Brown on October 16, 2022, on the 2500 block Pomeroy Road, SE.
Murchison’s defense attorney, Kevann Gardner, alerted the court Murchison was pleading not guilty and asserted his constitutional rights, including the right to a speedy trial.
Parties are expected back Nov. 15.
