Judge Issues Bench Warrant for Suspected Homeless Defendant

A DC Superior Court judge issued a bench warrant for the arrest of a defendant who may be homeless.

Dion Ingram is charged with second-degree burglary for allegedly entering a shop on the 1200 block of Good Hope Road, SE with the intent to steal property in the early morning hours of April 14.

The July 20 hearing was held to address Ingram’s issues with complying with his release conditions.

A representative from the Pretrial Services Agency (PSA) says he has been a loss of contact, is not complying with the terms of his pretrial release and has not verified his address.

The defendant was released on April 14. He received a notice of non compliance on June 22.

Ingram’s defense attorney said she thinks her client may be homeless, and that the number she has used to try and contact him has not been working.
