Jahmius Brown, Armed Robbery, Washington 2023

A 19-year-old Washington D.C. resident, Jahmius Brown, has been sentenced to more than nine years in prison for his role in a series of armed robberies that took place on July 23, 2023.

Brown, who pleaded guilty to one count of armed robbery and one count of robbery in January of 2024, was sentenced to 40 months in prison for the robbery charge and 75 months for the armed robbery charge. The sentences are to be served consecutively for a total of 115 months.

In exchange for his guilty plea, the government agreed not to pursue charges for two additional armed robberies that were alleged to have been part of Brown’s crime spree.

The first robbery occurred at the intersection of 2nd and Bryant Streets, NW, as the victim was walking down the 100 block of Bryant Street, NW. Brown cut off the victim and demanded that they hand over any valuables. Co-defendant Ricky Bronson, 18, exited a blue sedan, armed with a firearm, and the victim proceeded to hand over an iPhone and provided the defendants the password to it.

MPD later responded to 1331 D Street, NE for another report of an armed robbery. At this scene, detectives interviewed the victim, who stated that they were standing at the rear of a vehicle when another vehicle, a blue sedan, approached the victim from behind.

U.S. Attorney Matthew M. Graves and Chief Pamela A. Smith, of the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), commended the work of those who investigated the case from the MPD. They also commended the work of Assistant U.S. Attorneys Tamara Rubb and Jacqueline Yarbro.

Co-defendant Ricky Bronson, 18, of Washington, D.C., will be sentenced at a later date.
