For those of you interested in the case, I was curious and looked back through his charges to see what was going on with this. He is requesting a reduction in sentence because he thinks his plea deal (and that his lawyer said) his 2018 plea for possession of PCP would be served concurrently with his vehicular manslaughter plea.

Looking at the paperwork and plea deal he signed, those charges were filed separately and should be served separately. He seems to think (or that his lawyer at the time told him) that a statement on his plea deal that the government would not seek indictment or enhancement on remaining charges related to the manslaughter charge would apply to previous plea (which were separate cases).

TLDR: Dude has multiple plea-outs at multiple times for different charges, either his lawyer told him at the time or he thinks they were to be served concurrently rather than consecutively. Paperwork doesn't support that.

I don’t think you can link directly to the document. When I click the link, it takes me back to the search field. You might want to throw it in Google Drive or something and share that way.

Is there anything we can do? Call the USAO’s office?

If he’s attempting to vacate his guilty plea, how does he not go back on trial for those charges?

Though I’m sorry to say that I have never heard of anyone having luck getting a driver charged in similar circumstances. DC seems to have almost no one to advocate for strong justice for victims. And it’s certainly not going to spontaneously come from within our broken system.

I’m sorry this happened to your friend (I saw your previous post before it was removed). It must be painful to see that Little filed this motion. Based on the Judge’s comments at sentencing, it sounds extremely unlikely that his motion will be granted, though he of course has a right to ask.

Your library rules state that partons are bannable for "Engaging in bullying as defined by the Youth Bullying Prevention Act of 2012, effective September 14, 2012 (D.C. Law 19-167; 59 DCR 7820)." https://www.dclibrary.org/behavior

When I look up that statute, it includes bullying race, gender identity, and sexual orientation. Libs of Tiktok and Jack Posobiec bully for these on a daily basis. By your own rules, should they not be barred from DCPL with a category 3 violation for 1 month?
