Eight Americans who have been accused of conspiring to kill law enforcement officers have pleaded not guilty to murder charges in a federal court.

The defendants' attorneys said on Wednesday that there were many allegations with no substantial evidence to back them.

Lawyers also sought to block government efforts to have the defendants detained for the duration of the proceedings. One of them is accused of planning to seize up to four rural counties in southeast Michigan.

Attorneys claimed they are only exercising their rights to freely voice their anger.

The group, known as 'Hutarees' or 'Christian warriors', view the police as their enemy. They say they are fighting against a "new world order."

The Hutarees were charged with five criminal counts, including "seditious conspiracy and attempts to use weapons of mass destruction."
