The U.S. Marshals Service said Maurice Fox was arrested November 5. The Metropolitan Police Department said November 4.

November 5, on the Marshals release, and Wednesday, November 4, on the MPD release, are not the same arrest date. Charged on October 28, and arrested and charged on November 4, are not the same charging clock. Approximately 9:45 p.m., and approximately 10:01 pm, are not the same time for the same block. An arrest is not a conviction.

The U.S. Marshals Service, in a release dated November 6, 2026, from the Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force, reported that on November 5, 2026, task force members located and arrested a man wanted in a homicide that left a 65-year-old woman deceased on October 9, 2026, in the 1900 block of Frederick Douglass Court, Southeast, Washington, DC. It reported Maurice Fox was charged on October 28, 2026, with first degree murder while armed (premeditated) for his alleged role in the shooting death of the female victim.

It reported investigators developed information that he was residing at an address on Shepherd Street in Landover Hills, MD, and that on November 5, 2026, members located him in the vicinity of Shepherd Street and Parkwood Street and took him into custody without incident. It reported he was then transported to the Metropolitan Police Department's Homicide Branch. The release does not print an age for Fox. It does not print Fort Washington. It does not print the name Carol Ann Williams. Female victim, and a named decedent, are not the same identification. First degree murder while armed (premeditated) is the charge line on that release.

The Metropolitan Police Department, in a release dated Thursday, Nov. 5, 2026, reported that on Friday, October 9, 2026, at approximately 9:45 p.m., Seventh District officers responded to the 1900 block of Frederick Douglass Court, Southeast, for the report of an unconscious person. It reported they located an adult female victim, unconscious and not breathing, suffering from a gunshot wound, that DC Fire and EMS responded, and that despite lifesaving efforts she was pronounced dead on the scene. It reported the decedent has been identified as 65-year-old Carol Ann Williams, of Southeast, D.C. It reported that on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, pursuant to a D.C. Superior Court arrest warrant, 46-year-old Maurice Fox of Fort Washington, MD was arrested and charged with First Degree Murder While Armed-Premeditated. Wednesday, November 4, and November 5, are not the same date. November 4, 2026, was a Wednesday. November 5, 2026, was a Thursday. Arrested and charged on November 4, on this release, and charged on October 28 and located and arrested on November 5, on the Marshals release, are not the same sequence. First Degree Murder While Armed-Premeditated, with the capitals and the hyphen, and first degree murder while armed (premeditated), with the parentheses, are not the same typography. Age 46 and Fort Washington are on the MPD release. They are not on the Marshals release. Carol Ann Williams, of Southeast, D.C., is the MPD name. The Marshals release says a 65-year-old woman and the female victim. Southeast, D.C., and Washington, DC, are not the same abbreviation. Approximately 9:45 p.m., an unconscious person, a gunshot wound, and pronounced dead on the scene, are the MPD release. Left a 65-year-old woman deceased on October 9, with no clock, is the Marshals release. Shepherd Street and Parkwood Street, Landover Hills, without incident, and the Homicide Branch, are the Marshals release. The MPD release does not print that corner.

A separate Metropolitan Police Department publication, headed Homicide Victim: Carol Ann Williams, says that on Friday, October 9, 2026, at approximately 10:01 pm, Ms. Carol Ann Williams was shot and killed in the 1900 block of Frederick Douglass Court, SE, and that the department seeks the public's assistance. Approximately 10:01 pm, and approximately 9:45 p.m., are not the same clock. Ms. Carol Ann Williams, and 65-year-old Carol Ann Williams, are not the same identification line. SE, and Southeast, are not the same abbreviation. Shot and killed, and pronounced dead on the scene after a gunshot wound, are not the same sentence. The publication, as fetched, does not name Maurice Fox and still asks the public for assistance. The Nov. 5 release names him and announces an arrest. Seeking assistance, and an announced arrest, are not the same status. Both pages are the Metropolitan Police Department. No release used here reports a conviction. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
