The trial for two San Francisco men accused of killing an Italian Police officer will begin early next year.
The lawyer for Finnegan Elder says the trial has been fast-tracked, with the first hearing scheduled for Feb. 26.
Elder and Gabriel Natale are charged with the fatal stabbing of a Rome Police officer in July.
Italian prosecutors say Elder confessed to killing the officer during a scuffle, that followed a drug deal.
