On June 28, a 26-year-old homicide defendant received a trial date in reception court in front of Baltimore City Circuit Court Judge Melissa K. Copeland.
Michael Fisher is charged with two counts of first-degree murder, firearm use in a felony violent crime, conspiracy to use a firearm in a felony violent crime, illegal possession of a regulated firearm and having a handgun on his person for a Feb. 10, 2023, incident.
The prosecution gave Fisher, represented by Matthew Connell, a plea offer of life, suspending all but 50 years, for first-degree murders. Fisher rejected the offer.
Judge Copeland scheduled his trial to begin on Oct. 28 for five days. Judge Melissa M. Phinn will preside over the case.
