Original Note:
Felonies are adjudicated in the venue with jurisdiction - which for crimes allegedly committed in the District of Columbia is the DC district court. Accused parties do not get to choose the venue, and doing so would undermine foundational principles of the US justice system. https://www.justice.gov/usao/justice-101/charging
