A Juneau man accused of murder pleaded not guilty at his arraignment in Juneau Superior Court on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

Fenton L. Jacobs, 39, faces five felony charges in connection to the May 2 fatal stabbing<\/a> of fellow Juneauite Scott Campbell. Assistant Public Defender Eric Hedland entered a not guilty plea on Jacobs’ behalf in court Wednesday. Jacobs, who was present in court, didn’t speak during the hearing.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

Superior Court Judge Philip M. Pallenberg set a tentative trial date for 8:30 a.m. Aug. 5. Attorneys on hand estimated that the trial should last about two weeks.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t

A grand jury indicted Jacobs on May 9 with one count of first-degree murder, two counts of second-degree murder and two counts of third-degree assault stemming from the incident, which occurred just after midnight May 2. Juneau Police Department officers were called to the intersection of Franklin and Front streets to respond to a fight, according to a JPD release<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Campbell, 47, was found at the scene with three stab wounds, police say. He was taken to Bartlett Regional Hospital and was flown to Seattle for his injuries, but he died on the flight there, the release stated. According to the indictment, the grand jury heard from 13 witnesses and examined four search warrants.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
