Alleged teen murderers plead not guilty FIVE teenage boys accused of punching and kicking to death West Australian man Tauri Litchfield have pleaded not guilty to murdering the 28-year-old. The sixth accused teen did not enter a plea in the Perth Children's Court on Friday as his lawyer sought a three-week adjournment. All the accused appeared via videolink from detention. Mr Litchfield was found unconscious in a car park in Mandurah with severe head injuries in the early hours of March 17. He was rushed to hospital but died a short time later. While one of the lawyers was seeking the soonest possible trial date because his client had been in custody since late March, another preferred a later date given the seriousness of the charge. She suggested that phone calls made from prison by the teens, in which they allegedly discussed their involvement in the crime and that could be used by the state against her client, were irrelevant. She also suggested police video evidence of her client could be inadmissable. A four-week trial has been scheduled to commence on February 3.
