FILE - This undated file photo provided by the Maricopa County, Arizona Sheriff's Office shows Leslie Merritt Jr., who was once charged in some of metro Phoenix's 2015 freeway shootings but has since been cleared of the allegations. A judge has barred the attorneys representing Merritt at his upcoming false-arrest trial from saying there's a high likelihood a car belonging to a man later charged in nine killings had been near two of the highway shootings. The judge concluded the theory would devolve into a "minitrial" on Aaron Saucedo, who has pleaded not guilty to charges stemming from the nine killings.
