A shooting defendant requested additional time to review a plea offer extended by prosecutors before DC Superior Court Judge Heidi Pasichow on Feb. 18. 

Delante Glascoe, 42, is charged with two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon, possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, threat to kidnap or injure a person and possession of a prohibited weapon–felony for his alleged involvement in a shooting that occurred on Oct. 14, 2024 on the 900 block of Shepherd Street, NW. No injuries were reported. 

During the hearing, prosecutors alerted Judge Pasichow they had extended a plea deal, which would require Glascoe to plead guilty to assault with a dangerous weapon, two counts of felony threat and possession of a firearm, in exchange for a dismissal of all other charges. 

Camille Wagner, Glascoe’s attorney, alerted Judge Pasichow of a typographical error in the plea, and requested additional time to further review it with the defendant. 

Parties are slated to reconvene March 14.
