A homicide defendant pleaded not guilty to a five-count indictment on April 19 during an arraignment before DC Superior Court Judge Robert Okun.
Antwain Ulmer, 19, is charged with premeditated first-degree murder while armed for his alleged involvement in the fatal shooting of 30-year-old Charles Sullivan on July 9, 2023 on the 700 block of Kenilworth Avenue, NE.
Ulmer was indicted on April 17 on five counts, including one count of premeditated first degree murder while armed, two counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, one count of assault with intent to kill while armed, and one count of carrying a pistol without a license.
During the hearing Ulmer’s defense attorney, Frances D’Antuono, told the court that Ulmer pleaded not guilty to every charge and asserted his constitutional right to a speedy trial.
Parties are expected to return to court on July 26.
