For these charges, Carter faces a possible death sentence or mandatory life in prison. Carter is also charged with being a felon in possession of ammunition the day of the murder as well as possession with intent to distribute marijuana.

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">According to the Baltimore Police Department, Ashburne was murdered in the early morning as she got into her car outside the home she shared with her mother in the 2900 block of Rosalind Ave. in the Cylburn neighborhood. The police reported that an unknown male approached and shot Ms. Ashburne in the upper body as she tried to run. At the time, the police also released a video they said showed the suspect fleeing the scene of the shooting on foot. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A detention hearing is scheduled for 1:15 p.m. today in U.S. District Court in Baltimore before a U.S. Magistrate Judge Beth P. Gesner.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Fox 45 TV News reports: At the time of Ashburne&#8217;s death, police released surveillance footage of a suspect taken a block from where she was killed.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">&#8220;There was no robbery as far as we know. There was nothing even said to the victim in this case,&#8221; Baltimore police spokesman T.J. Smith said at the time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Ashburne&#8217;s family says she was an innocent person who worked as a teacher&#8217;s aide at Francis Scott Key Elementary School and was helping in her uncle&#8217;s ministry and feeding the homeless.</span></p>
