DC Superior Court Judge Julie Becker scheduled a preliminary hearing for a defendant charged with first-degree sexual abuse.
Christopher Sanders, 41, is accused of sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl. The victim says that Sanders entered her home on a day she was not in school and sexually assaulted her.
Investigations into the matter found that Sanders’ car was found in the vicinity of the victim’s home at the time of the alleged incident.
Sanders, who is already a registered sex offender, was convicted in 2003 for attempted second-degree child sexual abuse.
Sanders has been held in DC Jail since being charged in May. His next hearing is scheduled for Aug. 11.
