More Albuquerque police are expected to testify about the training two officers received before they shot and killed a homeless man.
A special prosecutor is scheduled Tuesday to call officers to the stand as Officer Dominique Perez and former Detective Keith Sandy face murder charges in James Boyd's death last year. A judge will decide if they go to trial.
Boyd, who had schizophrenia, was shot during a standoff as police accused him of camping illegally.
Video of the shooting showed Boyd appearing to surrender before Perez and Sandy opened fire. Authorities have said he threatened officers with two knives.
Attorneys for Perez and Sandy say the pair did nothing wrong, and training by the Albuquerque Police Department may contradict the law.
Prosecutors say the two unnecessarily escalated the encounter.
