In trouble again . . .
Bank robber turned Georgetown professor pleads not guilty to new charges
Shon Hopwood, who rose from incarceration for bank robbery to teaching law at Georgetown University, pleaded not guilty Monday in D.C. Superior Court to new charges of defying a court order and harassing his wife while he awaits trial on allegations he assaulted her last year.
Federal prosecutors say Hopwood, 49, had been using a disposable phone to call and text his estranged wife, sometimes through their children, in violation of the order and the conditions of his release from D.C. jail.
A lawyer for Hopwood in court on Monday said that not contacting his wife and children had been challenging for Hopwood, who was arrested last September and whose trial, initially set for June, was delayed until February after his wife declined to participate in the case against him.
