I noticed also on JW that it says: plea denying or not guilty. So he is also pleading not guilty just as KB has?

I think pleading Not Guilty is about par for the course legally, because then lawyers can prepare for trial. I think unless there is a plea bargain then there is usually no trial with that if both parties agree to the plea deal.
