Despite the murder charges, the district attorney revealed few additional details known about the circumstances surrounding Nichols' fatal encounter with police.

Mills and Martin both intended to plead not guilty, their lawyers said. Ballin said it might be another two weeks before the defendants make their initial appearance in court because they were charged by grand jury indictment.
