During a felony status conference on Feb. 28., a DC Superior Court judge rescheduled hearing to give parties more time to secure indictment.
Xavier Hamilton, 26, is charged with second-degree murder while armed for his alleged role in the shooting death of 39-year-old Ivy Smith on the 2800 block of Alabama Avenue, SE in 2016. According to court documents, another individual was found suffering from a gunshot wound at a nearby beauty supply store.
Shortly after Hamilton was brought into the courtroom, both the prosecution and defense approached the bench to speak with DC Superior Court Judge Todd E. Edleman.
Another felony status conference is set for March 13.
