Three men pleaded not guilty in Rockland County court Thursday in connection to the death of a Spring Valley teen last month.
News 12 was the only news outlet inside the court room as Anthony Mitchell, Ahmad Williams and Brian Thomas stood together in front of Judge Kevin Russo.
The men all face second-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder and weapons charges in the death of 17-year-old Trey Cineus.
Cineus died last month when he was shot outside the Meadow Lane apartments around 2:30 a.m.

It was an emotional court day for Trey's family and friends. As the accused men left their arraignment, Cineus'father called out Mitchell's name and was restrained by officers.
Cineus was a multisport athlete at Ramapo High School who was about to enter his senior year of high school.
All three men were remanded to jail.
In court, the defense team raised questions about evidence being handed over to them on deadline.
The next court date is scheduled for Aug. 17.
