Three US teens plead not guilty over Phoebe death
Sean Mulveyhill, 17, of South Hadley, and Austin Renaud, 18, of Springfield, face charges of statutory rape, and Mulveyhill and Kayla Narey, 17, of South Hadley, face charges of violation of civil rights, criminal harassment, and disturbance of a school assembly.
The Phoebe Prince case has been met with worldwide attention and has focussed American attention on the alleged bullying crisis dominant in American schools. Yesterday’s arraignment would have offered the first glimpse of several of those allegedly involved in the bullying of the South Hadley High School student. However, the three did not attend, invoking a court rule that allowed them to waive their appearances.
