Three people charged with murder have today pleaded not guilty.
Cyle Robert Jetson, 20, and 38-year-old Deborah Jean Tihema are jointly charged along with a 16-year-old, who has name suppression, of murdering Pierclaudio Raviola on March 23.
Raviola was found in the car park of Sumner Surf Lifesaving Club with serious head injuries in the early hours of March 24.
He was taken to hospital in a serious condition but died two days later.
Violence broke out inside, and outside, court when the three murder accused first appeared at Christchurch District Court last month.
