DC Superior Court Judge Danya Dayson granted the defense a postponement in order to conduct independent DNA testing for a stabbing case on Feb. 12. 

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. 

Slye’s defense attorney, Kevin Mosley, told Judge Dayson that Slye is planning to exercise his right to conduct independent DNA testing on the evidence starting by the end of next week.

Mosley stated that he and the defendant are still in discussions regarding which pieces of evidence to test. 

Parties are slated to reconvene on March 7.
