The prosecution offered a murder defendant a plea agreement Jan. 11 and said the defendant has a month before the offer expires.
Saeed Woodall is charged with first-degree murder while armed for his alleged role in the death of 32-year-old Deonta Farrar on the 4500 block of Quarles Street, NE in 2016. Apparently, Woodall’s sister had a child with Farrar.
During the hearing, the defense attorney said she is on track for trial, which is scheduled for July 15. The prosecution and defense say the trial should go on for at least a week and a half.
Woodall is scheduled for a status hearing on March 8.
According to court documents, Woodall’s girlfriend told police that on the day of the murder, Woodall learned that Farrar hit his sister. The girlfriend said Woodall allegedly armed himself and drove to where Farrar lived. Apparently, Woodall found the decedent on Quarles Street, got out of the car and allegedly opened fire.
