DC Superior Court Judge Andrea Hertzfeld presided over a co-defendant’s felony status hearing and ascertainment of counsel on Sept. 13, acknowledging both defendants have been in compliance with pretrial requirements and recognizing the extension of a misdemeanor plea offer.
Da’mon Price, 31, and Raven Trimble, 30, are charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for their alleged involvement in a stabbing that occurred on June 22, at the intersection of West Basin and Ohio Drive, SW. One individual sustained injuries during the incident.
Price is also charged with robbery in connection to the incident.
According to court documents, two individuals, later identified as Price and Trimble, stabbed the victim, before Price allegedly stole property from her car. Police officers located the defendants as they attempted to flee the scene.
The prosecution also stated for the record its extension of a misdemeanor plea offer. While the prosecution did reveal details, the defense asked for more time to review the conditions.
Price and Trimble have reportedly been in compliance with their pretrial regulations, including the requirement of wearing electronic location-monitoring anklets. Their attorneys argued to change their release conditions, including the removal of the ankle monitors.
The prosecution did not argue against Trimble’s being able to remove his ankle monitor, yet expressed concerns for Price as he allegedly fought arrest and attempted to flee.
Judge Hertzfeld ordered the change in release conditions for Price and Trimble, removing the electronic monitors. She stated that it will support access for each defendant to continue working or search for new employment.
Parties are slated to reconvene Oct. 3.
