NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (AP) — One of three people suspected in the slaying of a Colorado man has pleaded not guilty in Lincoln County District Court.

Thirty-year-old Randy Nevsimal made his plea on Monday. He’s charged with second-degree murder in the Sept. 16 slaying of 43-year-old Lonnie Sanchez, of Hoehne (HOH’-nee), Colorado. His body was found along the South Platte River near the city of North Platte. An autopsy showed that Sanchez died of blunt force trauma.

Forty-five-year-old David Saxton, a transient from Ponca City, Oklahoma, also is charged with second-degree murder. Thirty-two-year-old Maybelle Collins is charged with being an accessory. Online court records say neither has entered a plea. Their attorneys didn’t immediately return messages left Tuesday by The Associated Press.
