Officer in Boyd shooting seeks change of venue

ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) – A former detective charged with murdering homeless camper James Boyd has asked to have his trial moved to Dona Ana County, according to his attorney, Sam Bregman.
The attorney says the move is due to the publicity surrounding the case.
Video from March 2014 shows the 38-year-old was shot as he turned away from former detective Keith Sandy and Officer Dominique Perez.
Defense attorneys say the officers shot Boyd because he posed a danger to police.
