BILLINGS - A Stillwater County man accused of shooting a Molt man on his porch tells a judge he didn't do it at his arraignment Monday.

Jeff Hardman entered a not guilty plea to one count of deliberate homicide. Court officials say on October 15th, Hardman shot and killed 33-year-old Michael Blattie on his front porch. Court documents say Blattie received a threatening voice message on his cell phone the same day that came from Hardman's nearby residence.

Investigators say they discovered a note at Hardman's house signed by the 48-year-old apologizing for the shooting and asking Blattie's family for forgiveness.

Bond is set at $1-million dollars.
