Testimony ends in execution eligibility trial for alleged cop-killer

Published April 9, 2019 7:11 PM

The decision on whether or not John Hernandez Felix could be sentenced to death now sits in the hands of a judge.

John Hernandez Felix, 28, is accused of gunning down veteran training Officer Jose Gilbert Vega, 63, and rookie Officer Lesley Zerebny, 27, on Oct. 8, 2016, after they responded to a family disturbance call at his home. Testimony at a hearing last year indicated the 911 call that preceded the gunfire was sparked by a fight between Felix and his sister over a remote control device.

Felix returned to Indio court today for the fourth day of his Atkins trial, which will determine if he is mentally fit to be executed. Testimony came to a close in this phase of the trial today, with the prosecution calling three expert witnesses to the stand to attempt to prove that Felix does not meet the criteria for an intellectual disability.
