On Jan. 16, a shooting defendant was arraigned on nine counts in front of DC Superior Court Judge Jason Park.

Shawnette Greene, 47, is charged with three counts of possession of firearm during crime of violence, one count of armed robbery, one count of aggravated assault knowingly while armed, one count of assault with intent to commit robbery while armed, and 3 counts of accessory after the fact.

She’s charged for her alleged involvement in a non-fatal shooting that left an individual suffering three gunshot wounds to the upper left leg, on Feb.13, 2023, on the 200 block of Allison Street, NW. 

During the hearing, Hannah Claudio, Greene’s defense attorney, alerted the court she was pleading not guilty to all counts and asserted her constitutional rights, including the right to a speedy trial. 

Parties are slated to return on Feb.15.
