Judge Continues Homicide and Sex Abuse Hearing

A DC Superior Court judge granted parties’ request to continue an April 7 status hearing so the defense could have more time to review court documents.

Collin Potter, 28, is charged with kidnapping, first-degree sexual abuse while armed and felony murder while armed in the death of 36-year-old Vongell Lugo on Jan. 6, 2019, on the 2800 block of Wisconsin Avenue, NW. 

Judge Judith Smith scheduled the next status hearing for May 14. In the meantime, the defendant will remain held at DC Jail, where he’s been since he was charged in January 2019.
