‘OJ’ To Stand Trial For Rape Next Year

Attorney Orson ‘OJ’ Elrington is scheduled to stand trial in 2026 following allegations of rape dating back to January 2023. The trial is set to commence on February 23, 2026, and conclude on March 6, 2026. The accusations stem from an incident where a woman in her mid-20s reported meeting Elrington at a nightclub and subsequently visiting his home, where she claims the assault occurred. Former Commissioner of Police Chester Williams disclosed that the woman alleged she lost consciousness and awoke in a semi-nude state next to Elrington, with no recollection of the events. Elrington has consistently denied the allegations. He was formally charged with rape in March 2024 and released on $8,000 bail. Elrington is being defended by Senior Counsel Hubert Elrington and attorney Alifah Elrington.
