PORTLAND (AP) – A 46-year-old Palmyra man has pleaded not guilty to a murder charge in the 1995 shooting of a hitchhiker he picked up in Portland.
Steven Cutting, who allegedly confessed to the killing of 36-year-old William Greenwood of Westbrook, entered his plea Thursday in Cumberland County Superior Court.
After his arrest, Cutting told a television reporter that he shot Greenwood in self-defense after the two men got into a fight.
Investigators said Cutting was never a suspect until he allegedly confessed his involvement to a relative, who notified police.
