A District of Columbia Superior Court judge scheduled another status hearing in April for a murder defendant.

Jerome Wilson is charged with felony murder while armed, robbery and two gun-related offenses for his alleged role in the death of Sean Anderson on the 2300 Block of Good Hope Road, SE on March 24, 2018.

The judge scheduled the second status hearing on April 18 because the defense requested more time to review evidence including surveillance video and body cam footage.

The prosecution also requested to get a hard drive from defense to hand over the rest of the evidence package.

D.C. Witness previously reported that a detective on the case said Wilson, 36, was the last person to see Anderson, 48, alive. Apparently, the men were in Anderson’s apartment smoking crack cocaine and watching pornography. A witness told police Anderson was armed with a revolver, which the detective said could have been the murder weapon.
