A DC Superior Court judge issued a bench warrant for the arrest of a defendant who did not show up to his Aug. 10 court hearing.
Troye Robertson, 28, is charged with unlawful possession of liquid PCP. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers found the PCP when they searched him during an arrest for tampering with evidence on May 15 on the 300 block of 53rd Street, NE.
On May 16, Robertson was released on his promise to return to court. He was ordered to report to the Pretrial Services Agency (PSA.)
A PSA representative said Robertson has not been in contact with them since he was released in May.
The defendant is also on probation for a prior conviction. However, he has not been in contact with the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA) either.
Robertson’s attorney, Sean Murphy, asked Judge Michael O’Keefe to give Robertson more time to appear in court. Judge O’Keefe denied the request.
Robertson is scheduled to return to court on Oct. 30 to discuss the status of his case.
