A D.C. murder suspect who swapped identification bracelets with another inmate to escape from custody has been apprehended. The U.S. Marshals Service said 24-year-old James Brewer turned himself in shortly before 2 p.m. Saturday.
Brewer, who is charged with first-degree murder while armed in the slaying of a 71-year-old District man, absconded Friday after he switched identification bracelets with another suspect at D.C. Superior Court.
