A 19-year-old Baltimore man was denied bail on Jan. 27 after violating electronic home monitoring earlier this month during which time he allegedly became involved in a murder investigation.

Dominic Noble was present via Zoom for a bail review hearing on Thursday along with his defense attorney, Arthur McGreevy. The defendant previously appeared for bail review last November in connection to a shooting on S. Monroe Street near McHenry Street on Nov. 9, 2020, when four people were allegedly shot.

During November’s hearing, McGreevy said the incident captured on video was not compelling enough to confirm that his client was involved, and Judge Phillip S. Jackson released Noble on home detention.

On Thursday, McGreevy reminded Judge Jackson that this video was shown to him previously and has not really changed in terms of the case. 

The defense claimed that Noble violated home detention because he was kicked out of his mother’s home. Ultimately, the prosecution had a difficult time locating Noble before a new warrant was issued for his arrest on Jan. 23.

Noble was found in Howard County along Interstate 70 and became involved in a murder investigation, the prosecution said.

Following a police chase, officers found a gun that was possibly thrown away by Noble as well as a gun inside of the vehicle that Noble occupied with others.

The prosecution received a FBI analysis that placed Noble at the location where the crime occurred and his whereabouts to and from his mother’s home.

During Thursday’s proceedings, McGreevy pleaded for his client to be remanded to home detention.

“I think Mr. Noble had an opportunity that your honor extended and he unequivocally threw that opportunity away,” the prosecution countered.

The prosecution recommended no bail, citing Noble was also charged with second-degree escape in another case and deemed a flight risk.
