On May 25, DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan alerted parties in the case that doctors found Kavell Miller mentally competent for sentencing.
Miller, 22, was accused of shooting 33-year-old Lester Mangum on the 3900 block of South Capitol Street, SW on Oct. 8, 2021. Miller, 22, was originally charged with first-degree murder while armed.
He accepted a plea deal in January that reduced his first-degree murder charge to voluntary manslaughter while armed and dismissed three misdemeanor charges he was facing.
Sentencing is scheduled for June 21.
