A plea offer was rejected as a stabbing case heads for trial before DC Superior Court Judge Jennifer Di Toro on Oct. 15.
Anthony Jacobs, 59, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for his alleged involvement in a non-fatal stabbing that took place on the 1300 Block of Howard Road, SE on Aug. 28.
Jacobs rejected an offer that would have required him to plead guilty to attempted assault with a dangerous weapon in exchange for midline sentencing recommendations and for no further charges brought related to the facts in the case.
With the rejection of the plea offer, the matter now heads to trial.
A trial readiness hearing has been scheduled for Aug. 7, 2026.
