CAPE MAY COURT HOUSE, N.J. - A Pennsylvania dentist charged with dumping medical waste into New Jersey's coastal waters has pleaded not guilty.
Thomas McFarland entered his plea Thursday. He is seeking admission to a pretrial intervention program that would let him avoid a criminal record after a period of supervised oversight.
State officials don't yet know whether they'll challenge the move.
McFarland is accused of dumping waste that washed up on several Cape May County beaches last summer, forcing them to close for several days.
