Kenneth Furr Trans Shooting Update 2

Been a while since there's been any news in the Kenneth Furr care.   He's the off duty inebriated Washington DC cop who got pissed off after his unwanted advances to a transwoman at a CVS store in Northwest Washington August 26 were rebuffed.  Furr chased down, rammed and discharged his service weapon at her and the four occupants of the car she was riding in.   He later blew a .15 in an at the scene breathalyzer test 

Three were wounded, with one person being injured seriously enough to warrant be hospitalized.  It was a miracle that nobody was killed in this disturbing incident which was the part of a string of violent attacks and murders aimed at transpeople in Washington DC..  

He's been in jail held without bond since September 2, but word coming out of DC is that Kenneth Furr may be getting a plea bargain deal from the feds

According to a report in the DC Metro Weekly, at his November 4 felony status hearing US Assistant District Attorney Lara Worm told DC Superior Court Judge Ann O'Regan Keary that the government is close to offering a plea deal to Furr and has been negotiating with his attorney Harold Martin.  Both asked that a felony status hearing be scheduled for November 18   

Judge Keary agreed to the request, but warned that since this was the third felony status hearing, if a deal is not struck by that date, the trial would need to move forward.  .

Justice needs to be done for the people whose lives were negatively affected by Furr's actions, and you may wish DC trans community to stop by the courthouse for that November 18th hearing date, pack the courtroom, observe the procedures and see if that happens..
