Chad Michael Credeur, accused of murder in the April triple slaying in Lafayette, appeared in court for his arraignment Monday.
Credeur is accused of three counts of first-degree murder in the case, and officially entered pleas of not guilty to the indictment against him. He waived formal reading of the indictment, and a hearings date was set as the next step in the case.
The next court date in the case is October 8, when 15th Judicial District Judge Michelle Breaux will hold a hearing on more than 20 motions filed by Credeur's attorney Elliot Brown earlier this month.
