A 17-year-old accused of first-degree murder in the weekend slayings of a man, female teen and a girl inside a Bolingbrook home appeared before a Will County judge on Tuesday and pleaded not guilty to the charges against him stemming from the deadly home invasion.
Byrion Montgomery, 17, of Bolingbrook, who was in shackles and wearing a blue jail uniform, barely said much in his first court appearance before Dave Carlson, presiding judge of the felony division at the Will County Courthouse.
Montgomery, who was detained by police on Sunday night, did not have a private attorney. He was assigned Will County Assistant Public Defender Chris Benson as a result. Montgomery's next court date is scheduled for March 30, for either a preliminary hearing to determine if there's probable cause that he committed the charges against him or for a filing of a bill of indictment. A grand jury likely will return an indictment against him.
Montgomery has been charged with their murders, as well as the attempted first-degree murder of Tania Stewart.
