On Aug. 31, Aaron Murchison, a homicide defendant, rejected a plea offer extended by prosecutors.
Murchison, 27, is charged with second-degree murder while armed for his alleged involvement in a dispute that ended in the fatal shooting of 32-year-old Jamontate Brown. The incident occurred on Oct. 16, 2022, on the 2500 block of Pomeroy Rd, SE.
During the Aug. 31 hearing, Murchison rejected a plea offer deal that would have him plead guilty to one count of voluntary manslaughter in exchange for the dismissal of one count of assault on a police officer in another case.
The next court date is set for Sept. 29.
