Stabbing Defendant Receives Global Plea Covering Some 6 Cases

A defense attorney informed DC Superior Court Judge Deborah Israel on April 20 a plea is pending that may affect a defendant’s stabbing case along with several other matters. 

Antoinette Smith, 35, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for her alleged involvement in a non-fatal stabbing that occurred on the 5600 block of 13th Street, NW on July 15, 2025. The victim sustained a laceration to the left side of her torso under her armpit. 

According to Derrick Page, Smith’s attorney, he recently received a global plea offer from the prosecution that would resolve this case and Smith’s five-to-six pending cases. Page informed Judge Israel Smith requested more time to review the deal. The prosecution did not oppose the request. 

Additionally, Page asked Judge Israel to remove Smith’s GPS monitoring. The judge did not make a ruling and told him to file the request in writing. 

Parties are slated to reconvene on June 11.
