Controversial Home Arrest for D.C. Teen After Alleged Shooting Spree

An 18-year-old accused of firing an AR-15 on a D.C. street has been granted home arrest, sparking legal and public outcry.

Amonte Moody, 18, allegedly fired 26 rounds from an AR-15 at a moving vehicle in Washington, D.C., with no injuries reported.
Following his arrest, Moody was released to home arrest with an ankle monitor, despite the severity of the charges.
Prosecutors have filed an appeal against the pre-trial release, citing public safety concerns due to the nature of the alleged crime.
Local officials and residents have expressed frustration and concern over the decision, fearing it reflects a lenient approach to gun violence.
A hearing to reconsider Moody's pre-trial status is scheduled, amid increasing scrutiny of judicial decisions in gun-related cases.
