A murder defendant rejected a plea deal before DC Superior Court Judge Danya Dayson on March 19.
Ravon Slye, 32, is charged with second-degree murder while armed for allegedly fatally stabbing his then-girlfriend, 30-year-old Andrea Bond, on March 7, 2023, on the 1100 Block of D Street, NE.
During the hearing, a plea deal was put on the record that would require Slye to plead guilty to voluntary manslaughter while armed in exchange for the prosecution waiving any enhancement charges. The prosecution stated that an appropriate sentence would be 13-and-a-half years.
Slye rejected the plea offer.
Parties are slated to reconvene May 23.
