At a meeting at the Family Advocacy Center in Albuquerque Tuesday, Mayor Tim Keller and Albuquerque Police Department Chief Harold Medina highlighted both the seriousness of domestic violence and efforts to combat the problem.

After running for re-election on growing the Albuquerque police force, Mayor Tim Keller said he’s given up hope of hitting the longstanding goal of having 1,200 officers. The department is switching gears, according to the mayor, by narrowing officer tasks and relying on civilians and technology to fill in the gaps.

Albuquerque Police say that there is a link between two murders of Middle Eastern men over the last ten days, and that a third murder last November may also be related, but they are not ready to call it a hate crime.
