Chad Doerman pleaded not guilty to 21 charges after confessing to executing his three sons with a rifle. Prosecutors revealed that Doerman shot his 4-year-old son twice inside the home, then shot his 7-year-old son as he tried to run away, and ripped his 3-year-old son from his mother's arms before shooting him. Doerman was indicted on nine counts of aggravated murder, eight counts of kidnapping, and four counts of felonious assault. Each murder count carries the death penalty. The judge ordered Doerman to be held without bail while awaiting a pretrial hearing on July 5.
