During a motions hearing on Feb. 6, DC Superior Court Judge Rainey Brandt oversaw two witness testimonies which could impact whether or not they will be used at trial.

Alphonso Walker, 45, is charged with two counts of first-degree murder while armed under aggravating circumstances, six counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm, two counts attempt to commit robbery while armed, and two counts of first-degree murder while armed while committing or attempting to commit a robbery for allegedly murdering Dalonte Wilson, 23, and Antone Brown, 44, on April 25, 2018, on the 400 block of 61st Street, NE. 

During the Feb. 6 motions hearing, the parties finished listening to two separate expert witnesses who discussed the idea of what language to use during trial in a way the jury would understand. 

The next motions hearing is scheduled for Feb. 8.
