The parents of an infant found dead inside a duffel bag near their Georgia home last fall pleaded not guilty to murder this week.
Newtown couple Christopher McNabb, 27, and Cortney Bell, 24, were pictured in the courtroom handcuffed during their brief arraignment on Tuesday afternoon.
They are accused of killing their 15-day-old daughter, Caliyah McNabb, who was found dead and dumped in the woods in early October.
McNabb, who sports a forehead tattoo reading 'Face Up Or Lace Up', an apparent reference to the life mantra of rapper Machine Gun Kelly, wore a suit for the hearing.
Bell was seen in two patterned shirts, black pants with bright pink highlights in her hair, according to video captured by
The Covington News.
McNabb has been charged with malice murder, felony murder, aggravated battery and concealing a death.
Nearly three months after Caliyah was reported missing, a grand jury indicted Bell on charges of second-degree murder, cruelty to children and deprivation of a minor.
McNabb was previously arrested and charged with murder at the time of Caliyah's death, after he attempted to flee when her body was discovered.
