Michael Bennett to plead not guilty if case reaches trial - ESPN
The attorney for Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Michael Bennett said his client will enter a not guilty plea if his felony case on a charge of injury to the elderly goes to trial. ”The only two possible outcomes for this case is the DA’s office [saying] they don’t have a case and dismissing, or a trial -- one or the other,” attorney Rusty Hardin told ESPN. “If and whenever they ask for a plea, it will be not guilty.” Bennett’s next court appearance in Harris County, Texas, is set for April 23, court documents show.
