DENVER (AP) — A man charged with first-degree murder in the death of Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams has told The Denver Post he wasn't involved.

Prosecutors contend Willie Clark fired fatal shots into Williams' limousine from an SUV on New Year's Day 2007.

Two people accused of lying about whether they were in the SUV at the time have been charged with perjury. Clark told The Denver Post in a story published Sunday that prosecutors charged the wrong people with perjury while allowing other witnesses to lie about his role in Williams' death and in another homicide in exchange for deals in their own cases.

Denver district attorney's spokeswoman Lynn Kimbrough says she is not free to respond with a trial pending.
