Jonathan Young and Daquawn Lubin both indicated they want to change their pre-trial conditions of release during a hearing before DC Superior Court Judge Robert Okun on Dec. 9.
Young, 34, and Lubin, 29, are charged with conspiracy, two counts of assault with intent to kill while armed, assault with significant bodily injury while armed, aggravated assault while armed, four counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, carrying a pistol outside a home or business, and unlawful possession of a firearm by a convict.
Lubin is additionally charged with possession of a prohibited weapon. These charges stem from their alleged involvement in a non-fatal shooting that injured two on the 4000 block of Benning Road, SE, on July 24, 2023.
Young’s defense attorney, Lisbeth Sapirstein, told Judge Okun she intends to file a motion requesting Young be released from DC Jail pending trial.
Judge Okun said Lubin’s defense attorney, Kevin O’Sullivan, had recently submitted a request to go on vacation outside the jurisdiction with his family for a few days in January. The prosecutor asked for time to file a motion opposing the request.
The next hearing for Young is set for Jan. 16, 2025.
The next hearing involving both defendants is set for July 25, 2025.
