DC Superior Court Judge Robert Okun ordered a full exam to determine if a murder defendant is competent to stand trial.
The 38-year-old defendant is charged with assault with intent to commit first degree sexual abuse, kidnapping, burglary one, third degree sex abuse – defendant has been found guilty of committing sex offenses against two or more victims, misdemeanor sex abuse, and two counts of lewd, indecent, or obscene acts.
On Sept. 6 at approximately 2:06 p.m., there were reports made to the Metropolitan Police Department that a male was assaulting a female in the lobby of the 800 block of Quincy Street, NW. Upon arrival, MPD officers found a woman bleeding from the head. She told the responding officers that she met the defendant on a train and that he suggested they do “something” for money. The victim said that after declining, the defendant started to follow her.
Officers on the scene were informed by a witness that the defendant struck the victim’s head against mailboxes inside the lobby. The victim’s pants were then pulled down by the defendant.
During the Aug. 19 hearing, Judge Okun scheduled a mental observation hearing for Sept. 23 at the DC Jail.
