WCP | Ward 8 ANC Member Accused of Threatening to Kill Fellow Commissioner and the Mother of His Child Kendall Simmons in 2017 “A neighborhood-level elected official in Ward 8 was arrested last Friday for threatening to kill the mother of his child and a fellow commission member in two separate incidents.Kendall Simmons is listed as the chairperson for Advisory Neighborhood Commission (ANC) 8E and is a friend of Ward 8 Councilmember Trayon White. Simmons was accused in 2017 of assaulting his girlfriend in a Maryland grocery store, and White posted his bail. Prosecutors opted not to pursue charges against Simmons in that case. It’s unclear whether the alleged female victim from the 2017 incident is the same alleged female victim in Simmons’ arrest just a few days ago. He now faces one felony count and one misdemeanor in D.C. Superior Court. His address, according to records of the recent charges, is the same as White’s address in Southeast. That address is different than the one listed for Simmons on the ANC 8E website.Simmons’ legal trouble began earlier this month, when he dropped off his kid with the alleged victim, the child’s mother, according to court records. Simmons left after the two got into an argument, but he later called the woman and threatened to kill her.”On my mother, I am going to kill you,” Simmons told the woman, according to court records. “On Selena, I am going to kill you. I swear to Selena, I am going to kill you.”Selena is apparently a reference to a friend named Selena, who was killed by her boyfriend, the woman told police. Court records reveal that officers reportedly heard Simmons say “Bitch I’ll kill your ass” over the phone.” — MITCH RYALS, WASHINGTON CITY PAPER READ THE FULL WCP ARTICLE NEWSThe Advoc8teFebruary 1, 2019WASHINGTON CITY PAPER, ANC 8E, KENDALL SIMMONSComment Facebook0 Twitter LinkedIn0 Reddit Tumblr Pinterest0 0 Likes
