DAVID LAFFER PLEADS NOT GUILTY IN LI MASSACRE

MURDEROUS JUNKIES?
THE MAN accused of executing four people in a Long Island pharmacy during a robbery for painkillers has pleaded not guilty to first degree murder. 
The 33-year-old is accused of walking lining up workers Raymond Ferguson, 45, and Jennifer Mejia, 17,  and customers Bryon Sheffield, 71, and Jamie Taccetta, 33 and killing each one with a bullet to the head.
It's thought he wanted the Hydrocodone tablets because he and his wife Melinda Brady were addicted to
them.
Suffolk County prosecutors say they recovered Laffer’s fingerprints at the scene of the shootings Sunday and they also found the gun they say was used in the slayings at his home.
He was picked up Wednesday after an intense manhunt for the suspect seen in surveillance footage wearing a baseball cap, glasses and sporting a bushy fake beard inside Haven Drugs in Medford.
Brady has also been charged with robbery in the case, and told reporters her husband “did all of this” for her.
She was hospitalized and it’s not clear when she would be arraigned.
