A defendant in a robbery case pleaded not guilty to all 24 charges before DC Superior Court Judge Jennifer Di Toro.  

Jalique Wiseman, 19, is charged with multiple counts of robbery, robbery while armed, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, assault with a dangerous weapon, and credit card fraud for his alleged involvement in 18 separate incidents that occurred between Oct 2, 2023 and Nov 28, 2023. They occurred near Girard Street and Franklin Streets, NE.

According to court documents, Wiseman allegedly stole a variety of items, mostly phones and some wallets. Wiseman would reportedly demand the victim’s phone passcode and use the associated Venmo account to send money to various accounts, including “MALIQUE-WISEMAN-,1,” according to court documents. Other forms of transferring money were also used in the crimes. 

On June 27, Wiseman was indicted on 24 charges and pleaded not guilty to all charges. The prosecution indicated they have additional evidence that they will share with the defense.

Parties are slated to return Aug 13.
