A stabbing defendant waived his right to a preliminary hearing before DC Superior Court Judge Heide L. Herrmann on Nov. 14.
Mark Henry, 38, is charged with assault with a dangerous weapon for his alleged involvement in a stabbing on Nov. 10 near the intersection of Sycamore and Oak Drives, SE.
According to court documents, Henry allegedly stabbed the complainant multiple times after a verbal confrontation escalated. The victim sustained two puncture wounds and a laceration to her left torso and was transported to George Washington University Hospital for treatment.
During the hearing, Edward Joseph, Henry’s defense attorney, formally waived the preliminary hearing.
The prosecution requested that Henry remain detained, and the court ordered he continue to be held without bond.
Parties are scheduled to reconvene on Dec. 15.
