The wife of a man accused of killing two El Monte police officers who responded to a motel after the man's wife said she was being abused was speaking out for the first time, apologizing for her late husband.

Diana Flores identified her husband as Justin Flores. Family members have told NBCLA that he was a construction worker.

"I am so deeply sorry. My deepest condolences for saving me. I’m so, so sorry. They didn’t deserve that, or their families. They really didn’t. They were trying to help me and I told them before they went in the room, 'don’t go in, he has a gun.' And they still went in," she said. "I didn’t want anyone to get hurt in this. The only person getting hurt was me and now two other innocents."
