Today, my office announced that Naqwan Lucas has been charged for the murder of 21-year-old congressional intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym and for the murder of 17-year-old Zoey Kelley.
These were predictable homicides based upon the behavior of these individuals and the records that everyone knew about, yet the D.C. Council is interested in protecting not the victims but the criminals under the guise of protecting the innocence of youth.
Itβs time for them to start protecting the citizens of the District.
