Attempted Murder Defendant’s Sentencing Postponed 

An attempted murder defendant was scheduled to go in front of Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Levi S. Zaslow for sentencing on June 14.

Markia Vaughn, 20, is charged with attempted first-degree murder, first-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder, firearm use in a felony violent crime, assault of the first degree, armed carjacking, attempted armed carjacking, armed robbery, and reckless endangerment. 

In agreement with the prosecution, Vaughn pleaded guilty to conspiracy to first-degree murder and conspiracy to armed robbery in connection to a shooting on Feb. 10, 2022. However, prosecution said the defendant would only be sentenced for conspiracy to armed robbery. 

Her sentencing was postponed to Aug.19 at 9:30 a.m. because counsel for the defendant did not show up as well as there was a stand-in prosecutor.
