NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – Accused cop killer Travis Boys pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder charges at his arraignment Monday at Orleans Parish Criminal Court.

Family members of Boys appeared in court and his lawyer read this statement outside of the courtroom:
“Our hearts go out to the family and friends of Officer Daryle Holloway in this terrible time of grief. The outpouring of love and support for the Holloway family is a tribute to his life and honorable service to our community. We cannot imagine the sorrow and heartache we know Officer Holloway’s family and children must be feeling, and we are deeply sorry for their loss. We are very moved by the grace of Officer Holloway’s mother to ask the community to hold us in its prayers. The Holloway family is in our thoughts and prayers every day, always forever.”
The next date has been set for August 20, 2015.
