DC Superior Court Judge Deborah Israel accepted a stabbing defendant’s waiver of his right to a preliminary hearing during a March 12 hearing.
Lukas Nawrocki, 19, is charged with assault with significant bodily injury for his alleged involvement in a non-fatal stabbing on Feb. 1 at the intersection of 23rd and L Street, NW.
According to court documents, Nawrocki is accused of stabbing a random victim with a pair of scissors after arguing with his parents the night of the incident.
Nawrocki’s attorney, Pleasant Brodnax III, alerted the judge of Nawrocki’s wish to waive his right to a preliminary hearing. Parties are working on plea negotiations.
Parties are slated to reconvene March 24.
