A shooting defendant pleaded not guilty to all charges before DC Superior Court Judge Todd Edelman on Jan 31.
Jaleel Fowler, 26, is charged with aggravated assault knowingly while armed, two counts of assault with intent to kill while armed, assault with intent to commit robbery while armed, unarmed carjacking, four counts of robbery while armed, four counts of unauthorized use of a vehicle during a crime of violence, conspiracy, ten counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, second-degree theft, and four counts of obstruction of justice.
The charges stem from his alleged involvement in a shooting incident occurring on Dec. 15, 2023, on the 2700 block of Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue, SE.
Fowler’s current case is one of several pending actions against him.
Raymond Jones, Fowler’s attorney, alerted the court of his intent to plead not guilty to all charges, and asserted his constitutional rights to a speedy trial.
Parties are slated to reconvene March 3.
