Boy, 11, pleads not guilty in pregnant slaying

NEW CASTLE, Pa. (AP) - May 7, 2009 Wednesday's formal arraignment for /*Jordan Brown*/ was the first step in moving the case through Lawrence County Common Pleas Court. But Brown's defense attorneys say they still plan to ask a judge to move the case to juvenile court, where a judge would have jurisdiction over the case only until Brown is 21.

If he's convicted as an adult, Brown could face up to life in prison.

Brown is accused of shooting 26-year-old /*Kenzie Marie Houk*/ as she lay in bed in their farmhouse in Wampum, killing her and her unborn son.
