Attempted Murder Suspect Turns Down Plea, Trial Set 

Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Melissa K. Copeland set an August 20 trial date for an attempted murder suspect after he turned down a plea deal.  

Demetrius Wilson, 29, is charged with first-degree attempted murder, second-degree attempted murder, first-degree assault, firearm use in a felony violent crime, reckless endangerment, firing a gun in Baltimore City, firearm possession with a felony conviction, illegal possession of ammunition and having a loaded handgun on his person, regarding a Dec. 6, 2023, incident. 

In a brief hearing on May 9, Wilson rejected a prosecution plea offer to serve an aggregate 18 years for the alleged offenses.
