A Missouri man who says he killed three people in suburban Kansas City last year because he thought they were Jewish gets his chance to defend himself against a capital murder charge

It's unclear how much evidence Frazier Glenn Miller Jr. will be allowed to present. He's scheduled to present his defense on Friday.

Miller admits driving to two Jewish sites in Overland Park, Kansas, in April 2014 with the intent of killing Jews. He has pleaded not guilty because he says Jewish people are committing genocide against the white race and it was his duty to stop them.

None of the victims was Jewish.

Judge Thomas Kelly Ryan has warned Miller against presenting evidence that doesn't address whether he fired the fatal shots.

Prosecutors finished their case Thursday.
