A Wyandanch man has pleaded not guilty to murdering his best friend outside a Deer Park strip club.
Victor Calderon, 21, is accused of gunning down 20-year-old Ryan Aguilar during a fight in the parking lot of Illusions Gentlemen's Club back in September.
Prosecutors say Calderon started an argument with another group outside the strip club, left to grab his gun from his car and then came back and opened fire, shooting Aguilar.
Calderon's attorney says there are conflicting witness accounts and that no gun was ever recovered.
A memorial still stands outside of Aguilar's home. As this case moves forward, loved ones say that what they want now is justice.
Calderon is due back in court in February.
