Lauri Peterson's Son Josh Waring Pleads Not Guilty To Attempted Murder Charges!

Nearly a month after his arrest Joshua Waring, the son of former Real Housewives of Orange County star Lauri Peterson, was arraigned on Friday, July 15. Waring has appeared in a Costa Mesa courtroom and has pleaded not guilty to all charges.

On June 20, Waring was arrested after he allegedly shot a man in front of his home, which is also in Costa Mesa, California.

Police told the Los Angeles Times that the disturbed defendant shot 35-year-old Daniel Lopez in the upper torso at around 2:30 a.m. Lopez was hospitalized at the time and is expected to recover.

“Apparently there had been a previous confrontation between [Waring] and the occupants of that residence earlier, and he had returned,” Costa Mesa police Lt. Paul Beckman said.

As previously reported, Waring currently has a whopping seven charges filed against him: three counts of attempted murder, three counts personal use of a firearm and one count of inflicting great bodily injury.

The Bravo star, whose bail is still set at $1.09 million for all charges, is currently in police custody, an Orange Country Superior Court PIO said Friday, reports Radar Online.

While the 27-year-old had two previous hearing dates scheduled, he did not appear before a judge on June 22, but Waring refused to leave his cell! The next day, his arraignment was postponed again due to undisclosed circumstances.

His pre-trail hearing is scheduled for Aug. 19.
