2 teens charged in Phoebe Prince case in court

An attorney for a teen accused of bullying a 15-year-old Massachusetts girl who hanged herself says there's no evidence his client did anything wrong.

Michael Jennings, the attorney for Kayla Narey, said he'll ask the judge to review the grand jury report and dismiss the charges. He said Narey never hurt Phoebe Prince, threatened to hurt her, or did anything that would cause Prince to harm herself.

Sean Mulveyhill also appeared in court with Narey on Wednesday. The teens, both 17, are among six South Hadley teens charged in connection with South Hadley High School freshman Prince's suicide in January. Prosecutors say she was despondent after incessant bullying.

All six of the teens have pleaded not guilty.
