Three co-defendants in a 2021 murder case declined a plea offer and are now awaiting a preliminary hearing, which will determine if their case has enough evidence to go to trial.
On the night of July 2, 2021, 21-year-old Rosendo Miller was found lying in the street with multiple gunshot wounds after he exited a store on the 1300 block of Brentwood Road, NE, and was allegedly robbed and gunned down by three individuals. The suspected gunmen, 22-year-old Mark Fletcher, 21-year-old Malik Bynum and 20-year-old Larry White were arrested that night. All three of them have been held at DC Jail ever since, facing charges of first-degree murder while armed.
During the most recent hearing for this case on Feb. 11, the defendants rejected a plea deal and DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan scheduled a preliminary hearing for March 25.
