A man who pleaded guilty to killing a Metropolitan Police Department officer is scheduled to be sentenced Monday.
Tyson Hampton, 28, pleaded guilty but mentally ill in May to dozens of counts, including murder, attempted murder and discharging a firearm from or within a structure.
Hampton previously faced the death penalty, but prosecutors agreed not to seek it in exchange for his plea.
In 2022, Hampton fatally shot Officer Truong Thai, who was responding to a domestic violence call.
