During a status hearing, Jan. 31, a DC Superior Court judge opted against changing a murder trial date.
Antonio Clifton Jackson, 32, a resident of Capital Heights, Md., was charged with first degree murder while armed for allegedly stabbing Maria Antoinette Evans, 52, on the 500 block of Oakwood Street, SE on March 29, 2018.
DC Superior Court Judge Neal E. Kravitz decided to remain on track with the trial that is scheduled to take place on Oct. 5.
Judge Kravitz also set a status hearing to discuss whether Jackson would test DNA evidence independently on March 26.
Judge Kravitz is also supposed to decide on a date for a motions schedule and a trial readiness hearing on March 26.
