During a felony status conference on April 26, DC Superior Court Judge Robert Okun continued a murder case to give the defense an opportunity to look over a plea offer.
Malik Seltzer, 27, is charged with first-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting Paris Odemns, 37, on Sept. 15, 2021, on the 4000 block of 1st Street, SE.
The prosecutor mentioned a plea offer had been submitted.
Defense attorney Kevann Gardner said he was currently in a trial estimated to last a few weeks, so he requested a hearing sometime in the future to give him a chance to review the offer with his client.
The parties are scheduled to return June 2 for a felony status conference.
