Renato Seabra pleaded not guilty Tuesday to a second-degree murder charge. Police say the 21-year-old has confessed to killing well-known Portuguese journalist Carlos Castro on Jan. 7 at their hotel room in Manhattan. They say Seabra brutally attacked his companion for at least an hour. Proescutors says Seabra admitted to castrating Castro with a corkscrew, bludgeoning him with a computer monitor and stabbing him in the face. Defense lawyer David Touger said after Seabra's court hearing that they hope for a positive outcome to the case, although he didn't elaborate. Seabra remains in custody at Bellevue Hospital. *********************************** They are hoping for a positive outcome? ?!!! What the heck could that be? Oh....and jbtw........OUCH!!!!

" ... at least an hour" ? So then, the victim must have been unconscious or dead during the mutilation? No mention of noise, at all?
