Stabbing Defendant Complies With Probation After Failed Drug Tests

DC Superior Court Judge Judith Pipe checked in with a stabbing defendant’s probation officer to determine her compliance on March 9. 

Sharae Hicks, 53, was sentenced to a suspended sentence with one year of probation on June 9, 2025 for simple assault and attempted bail violation. These charges stem from Hick’s alleged nvolvement in a stabbing that took place at the 1400 block of 12th Street, NW on July 29, 2024. The victim sustained a cut across his hand.

According to Hicks’ probation officer from The Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA), Hicks failed to report for drug testing on Jan. 13 and 15, and tested positive for cocaine on Jan. 10. Along with this, she submitted a non-human urine sample to be tested, said the CSOSA officer. 

Despite the violations, the CSOSA officer told the court that Hicks regained compliance and submitted negative drug tests, as well as attending anger management classes. 

The CSOSA officer asked Judge Pipe to schedule another hearing in 60 days to allow for Hicks to complete the requirements of her supervision. 

Hicks probation is scheduled to end in June and Judge Pipe noted that she hoped Hicks will continue to comply with the terms of her supervision. 

Parties are slated to reconvene on May 11.
