Prosecutors alerted DC Superior Court Judge Michael Ryan of their intent to upgrade three defendants’ charges following a shooting victim’s death during a hearing on June 13.

Richard Price, 24, Tyeesha Miller, 29, and Danielle Price, 27 are charged with assault with intent to kill while armed, aggravated assault knowingly while armed, six counts of possession of a firearm during a crime of violence, conspiracy, and eight counts of obstruction of justice, for their alleged involvement in a shooting on June 1, 2022, on the 300 block of 56th Street, NE.

During the hearing, the prosecution informed Judge Ryan that the victim had passed and that additional charges were under consideration. The prosecution also requested continuance for extra negotiations and to wait for indictment. The judge granted both requests.

Parties are slated to reconvene Oct. 6.
