In a tense courtroom session, Judge presided over the case of Dalius Williams, who appeared with his defense attorney, Mr. Rohos, while Mr. Smith represented the State. Williams faced a second amended motion to revoke his unadjudicated probation—originally stemming from a third-degree felony for possession of a controlled substance and a related injury to a child case.
The State had offered Williams a 4-year plea deal for both cases to run concurrently, but he rejected the offer after consultation with his attorney and his mother. The judge made clear that this was his last chance to accept the offer, as proceeding to trial could lead to stacked sentences—meaning time served consecutively if found guilty later.
Williams chose to maintain his plea of true to counts one and two (failure to report and unpaid fees), but withdrew his plea on count three (evading arrest), entering a plea of not true instead. The prosecution stated multiple officers witnessed the alleged evasion and were prepared to testify.
The judge reviewed Williams’s criminal record, including numerous misdemeanors, multiple probation revocations, and a prior criminally negligent homicide from 2017. The hearing proceeded with the understanding that depending on testimony, it might be continued for further evidence.
The courtroom remained calm yet serious as the judge reminded Williams that rejecting the plea could carry serious long-term consequences if convicted later.
