On June 2, DC Superior Court Judge Anthony Epstein granted a brief continuance in a 2022 non-fatal shooting to allow parties to have final plea offer negotiations. 

Craig Peacock is charged with assault with intent to kill while armed and possession of a firearm during a crime of violence. Peacock allegedly shot the victim on Oct. 26, 2022 on the 1100 block of 1st Street SE.

Prosecutors said if parties do not reach an agreement by next week, they will set a trial date.

The next hearing is scheduled for June 11.
