A homicide defendant was arraigned in a murder case on Oct. 9, before DC Superior Court Judge Rainey Brandt.

Deandre Miles, 28, is charged with first-degree premeditated murder while armed, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, and destruction of property worth 1000 dollars or more, for his alleged involvement in the fatal shooting of 28-year-old Davon Fuller. The shooting took place on the 1500 block of Maryland Avenue, NE, on Oct. 16, 2023.

Kevin Robertson, Miles’ attorney, alerted the court of his intent to plead not guilty and asserted his constitutional rights.

The prosecution requested a 90-day continuance in order to share all discovery with the defense.

There will be a status date on Jan. 10, 2025, and the trial is set to begin Sept. 22, 2025.
