Two men and a woman have pleaded not guilty for giving alcohol to a nine-year-old who appeared drunk at a Hamilton skate park.
Michael King, Lucy Snowden and Kali Tiloi were excused from appearing in person at Hamilton District Court yesterday each charged with supplying alcohol to a nine-year-old.
Their lawyers confirmed they had earlier entered not guilty pleas.
The trio, whose names have not been published before, received public attention after a bystander put footage of the boy, seemingly drunk, at Fairfield Park in January on You Tube.
The boy's father had earlier welcomed the charges being laid against the trio by police.
