Investigators say 76-year-old Ellen Gilland shot her husband, Jerry, inside a Daytona Beach hospital room last year.

They said she also pointed a gun at the officers who responded.

Prosecutors are expected to fight Thursday to exclude testimony from one of the defense witnesses.

This should be the final hearing before Gilland’s trial begins next month.
