Not Guilty Plea on New Green River Charges
From Times Wire Reports
Gary Ridgway pleaded not guilty in a Seattle court to three additional murder charges, nearly a year and a half after he was accused in four of the 49 Green River serial killings.
The latest aggravated first-degree murder charges were filed last week after prosecutors alleged that microscopic paint dust found on the clothing of three women tied him to the slayings.
If convicted, Ridgway, 54, would face either life in prison or the death penalty.
