(AP) -- A fourth man charged in the shooting death of Washington Redskins star Sean Taylor appeared in court Sunday and, like his co-defendants, was denied bond.

Jason Mitchell, 19, appeared briefly via videoconference in a Fort Myers courtroom, about 100 miles from here. Dressed in an orange jumpusit, he responded quietly when asked if he understood the charges.

''He looks like he's in shock,'' said Sawyer Smith, one of his attorneys.

Three others -- Eric Rivera, 17; Charles Wardlow, 18; and Venjah Hunte, 20 -- made their first court appearance Saturday.

All four have been charged with unpremeditated murder, home invasion with a firearm or another deadly weapon and armed burglary.

They will be transported to Miami, perhaps as early as Sunday, when thousands are expected to gather to mourn the 24-year-old Pro Bowl safety.

A public viewing was scheduled Sunday evening; a massive funeral was set for Monday at a Florida International University stadium.

Taylor died Tuesday, one day after being shot at his home in an affluent Miami suburb. Police said the suspects were looking for a simple burglary, but it turned bloody when they were startled to find Taylor home.
