MELROSE—Wakefield resident John Burbine pleaded not guilty to nearly 100 child sex abuse charges at his arraignment Wednesday morning in Middlesex Superior Court in Woburn.

Burbine, 49, was arrested earlier this month and charged with numerous abuse violations involving children primarily under the age of 3.

Burbine spent much of the hearing looking straight ahead behind glass in a separate room, answering questions primarily with one-word responses.
