A stabbing defendant was reminded he must comply with all release conditions during a June 28 hearing before DC Superior Court Judge Jennifer Di Toro.
Billy Williams, 65, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, assault with significant bodily injury, threat to kidnap or injure a person while armed, and aggressive panhandling, for his alleged involvement in a stabbing at Rock Creek and Virginia Avenue, NW, on Dec. 7, 2023.
At the hearing, a representative from the Pretrial Services Agency (PSA) alerted Judge Di Toro that Williams has been non-compliant with release conditions, including his GPS monitoring.
Judge Di Toro reminded Williams he must follow all requirements, and ordered a drug test due to his previous positive results.
Camille Wagner, who was standing in as Williams’s attorney due to Henry Escoto’s absence, alerted the court he would check in with PSA.
Parties are slated to reconvene July 12.
