Jorge Rodriguez and Abraham Montoya, wearing shackles, handcuffs and leg irons, pleaded no contest Monday to charges of second degree murder and robbery in exchange for thr sentencing agreement. A no contest plea means the teenagers do not dispute the charges, but do not admit guilt. Originally, Rodriguez and Montoya had been charged with first degree murder in the March 29 shooting death of CPL.Amedicus Quincey Howell ( Med) 3rd. in Immokalee, following the robbery of convenience store in town. The teen-agers testimony is needed against Ernesto Suarez, 29, Miguel Sory, 36, and Raymundo Reyes, 22, all of Immokalee. The men were all born in Cuba and came to Florida in the Mariel boatlift. Med was the first male grandchild of Clarence William and Ethel Edick Miller I missed growing up with my him.
