A DC Superior Court judge scheduled a hearing to determine if the case against a murder defendant has enough evidence to go to trial.
Christian Monge, 24, is charged with second-degree murder while armed for allegedly stabbing 28-year-old Brittanie Clarke on the evening of Aug. 31 on the 5000 block of 1st Street, NW.
Judge Marisa Demeo scheduled the preliminary hearing for Oct. 8. The prosecution said parties will begin plea negotiations in the meantime.
