Judge Dismisses Murder Defendant’s Charges

During a felony status hearing Oct. 25 a murder defendant’s charges were dismissed. 

Antonio Booze 46, is charged with second-degree murder for allegedly shooting Eugene Johnson, 37, on the Unit block of Galveston Place, SW on Nov. 11 2018.

The prosecution had nine months to get a grand jury indictment, which expired on Sept. 30. However, D.C. Witness previously reported that DC Superior Court Judge Juliet McKenna granted a 30-day extension,

The prosecution said there was still no indictment on file for Booze so Judge Mckenna proceeded to dismiss Booze of his second – degree murder charge. 

Judge McKenna also removed Booze from the high intensity supervision program.
