Alleged Poway Synagogue Shooter Pleads Not Guilty to All Charges
POWAY, California—John T. Earnest pleaded not guilty Tuesday to murder charges for an attack on a local synagogue that killed one person on Saturday.
Earnest, 19, entered court looking sullen and angry but said nothing during the brief arraignment. Dressed in a blue jail jumpsuit, he watched from a glass box as a public defender entered his not-guilty plea.
A judge ordered him held without bail, calling him an “obvious and extraordinary” risk to the public.
