Or it means he is guilty but knows he can either get off or get leniency by stretching this thing out.

That sounds more like a "no contest" plea, but I'm not a lawyer.

For example, someone shoots someone else in self defense. Yes, he shot the other person, but he's not guilty of a crime. The victim could press charges and if it isn't a clear cut case of self defense the shooter can be prosecuted. The shooter will then plead "not guilty."



Willis' girlfriend may have started attacking him, so he "defended" himself, thus he's "not guilty," or he could blame his actions on some other reason, temporary insanity, some sort of medical condition, etc. A not guilty plea doesn't necessarily mean you didn't do the crime.
