The 22-year-old man accused of killing eight people in the Atlanta-area spa shootings pleaded not guilty to four counts of murder. If found guilty, he could potentially face the death penalty.
Robert Long appeared in Fulton County Superior on Tuesday, where he pleaded not guilty to a multitude of charges. In addition to the four murder counts, he is facing charges of aggravated assault and domestic terrorism.
Long’s attorney waived arraignment during the appearance. His next court appearance is set for November 23.
He was indicted for the deaths of Suncha Kim, 69, Soon Chung Park, 74, Hyun Jung Grant, 51, and Yong Ae Yue, 63, at the Gold and Aromatherapy spas.
Long previously pleaded guilty to four counts of murder in July related to the shooting deaths at a spa in Cherokee County. For that case, he was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus an additional 35 years.
Xiaojie “Emily” Tan, 49, Daoyou Feng, 44, Delaina Yaun, 33, and Paul Michels, 54, were killed during Long’s shooting rampage at Young’s Asian Massage in Cherokee County.
During the Cherokee County hearing, Long told the court that he planned to kill himself over his sex addiction. Instead, he blamed the sex workers and killed them instead.
