A DC Superior Court judge sentenced a domestic violence defendant to serve 18 months of supervised probation.

William Glover was initially charged with two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon. He pleaded down to attempted assault with a dangerous weapon and unlawful possession of a firearm with a prior conviction in January. He picked up these charges last year in March 2020. 

Defense attorney Jason Kalafat discussed his client’s poor conditions during his time at DC Jail. Glover told Judge Rainey Brandt he endured COVID-19 while incarcerated.  

Glover will also have to participate in a Domestic Violence Prevention Program.

Glover must also register as a gun offender, seek employment, refrain from any drugs and alcohol, and not harass, assault, threaten, abuse, or destroy the belongings of the victim.

Glover must pay $100 towards the Victims of Violent Crime (VVC) compensation fund in the amount of $100 by December.
