During a felony arraignment Nov. 16, the prosecution extended a plea offer to a murder defendant involved in a stabbing.
Jose Luzunaris is charged with first-degree murder while armed for allegedly stabbing 56-year-old Gregory Monroe on Feb. 3 at the Judiciary House Apartments on the 400 block of H Street, NW.
The prosecution offered Luzunaris a plea deal for second-degree murder. The offer is set to expire on Nov. 30.
According to court documents, surveillance footage shows Luzunaris, 53, entered the apartment building early that morning. Shortly after, the defendant was seen walking towards the victim’s door.
A status hearing is scheduled on Nov. 30. Continue following D.C. Witness for updates on the case.
