FILE - In this Feb. 7, 2013, file photo, Roberto Miramontes Roman sits at a desk during his first hearing before the Utah Board of Pardons at the Utah State Prison in Draper, Utah. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Utah argues in court documents filed Wednesday, May 28, 2014, that Roman can be tried on the dozen charges he faces from the 2010 shooting of a Millard County deputy during a traffic stop. Roman has argued that he was already tried for the same crime in state court, and the federal case constitutes double jeopardy, which is prohibited by the U.S. Constitution. In state court in 2012, Roman was acquitted of aggravated murder but convicted of evidence tampering and a weapons charge.
