Washington, D.C.’s idea of criminal justice reform has decayed the justice system so much that someone firing off a weapon on the street for fun is not deemed to be a threat to the public.
The suspect in this story is Amonte Moody, who is alleged to have fired 26 shots from an AR-15 at a car on a public street. The act was caught on three different cameras. He was charged with assault with a dangerous weapon and possession of a firearm with a crime of violence, two felonies. This is a cut-and-dry example of someone who should not be granted pretrial release.
