During a Jan. 10 hearing, DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan sentenced a non-fatal shooting defendant to 40 years of incarceration, with five years of supervised release.
Travis Littlejohn, 38, was found guilty on four charges of assault with intent to kill while armed, one count of aggravated assault while armed, and multiple counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence for his involvement in a mass shooting that occurred on the 3800 block of Minnesota Avenue, NE, on July 5, 2019.
According to court documents, four victims sustained non-life threatening wounds as a result of an altercation at a Shell gas station.
Judge Raffinan said that Littlejohn was found guilty on all 28 counts during his trial. She also explained that when deciding Littlejohn’s sentence, she considered the facts of his case, his education, employment status and criminal history.
That includes a previous charge of voluntary manslaughter while armed, as well as abuse and neglect of a child.
Judge Raffinan imposed a sentence of 10 years for all four of Littlejohn’s assault with intent to kill charges, running consecutively, totaling 40 years. Judge Raffinan then imposed a sentence of six years for every other charge, running concurrently with the other four charges. In addition, Littlejohn will face five years of supervised release, and must register as a gun offender. .
There are no further dates set in this case.
