Aurora movie theater shooting trial day 19: Prosecution expected to call experts and victims

Day 19 in the Aurora movie theater shooting trial – People vs. James Eagan Holmes. Today, prosecutors are expected to call experts and victims to the stand. During the course of the trial, prosecutors will argue that Holmes, the admitted gunman, was sane when he went into the midnight premiere of the Dark Knight Rises in an Aurora, Colo., movie theater and opened fire on the audience, killing 12 and wounding 70. His defense attorneys will try to spare Holmes’ life by arguing that he was insane. 7NEWS and TheDenverChannel.com will have gavel to gavel coverage of the trial starting at 8:15 a.m. (MST) everyday and ending around 5:30 p.m. (MST) Watch new live video on our YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/7NewsDenver/live Additional resources:LIVE VIDEO & BLOG: http://bit.ly/theatertrialTIMELINE of the case: http://bit.ly/theatertimelineJURY PROFILE: http://bit.ly/theaterjury CONTINUING COVERAGE: http://bit.ly/theatercoverage

@NT8. I have several family members in the Navy, so I do understand

by Jaclyn Green 5/27/2015 9:38:43 PM
Hmmm.... Soldering Iron time? or meh the young guys wouldn't know what that is....

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:38:50 PM
@NT8, yes, I think he was in the same class as JH

by Liz 5/27/2015 9:38:52 PM
I know! They approach every 5 seconds!

by 1918 5/27/2015 9:40:40 PM
@This the Jury can only come back with not guilty by reason of insanity or guilty/sane. There is no guilty by reason of insanity defense in CO.

by Abrandt 5/27/2015 9:40:46 PM
Okie Higge is recharged......

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:40:53 PM
Niki C...Because she isn't certain of how to make the/an objection correctly would be my best guess...doesn't want to be embarrassed...

by Robin 5/27/2015 9:40:58 PM
Thanks ya'll!

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:41:00 PM
The PO on the left sure is having fun

by 1918 5/27/2015 9:41:12 PM
These objections are really starting to piss me off. Sorry for the language but....

by Julie 5/27/2015 9:41:15 PM
If we get duck tape can it be for the DT?

by Suzanne 5/27/2015 9:41:20 PM
Might be a lab partner?

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:41:37 PM
@valm46 We thought our one bad day in three weeks was bad, anica or phil would be blocking comments left and right if the feed went down during psychiatrist's testimony.

@Anica We still on a roll and you haven't had to block any comments yet because we're all so well behaved?

by Penguins219 5/27/2015 9:41:47 PM
Good One Suzanne!!!

by Robin 5/27/2015 9:42:15 PM
@This lawyer...I agree but you never know who on the jury, or how many on the jury, are thinking he's insane.

by Liz 5/27/2015 9:42:18 PM
Young Mook Lee watched the gunman give a presentation in front of students and faculty members in May 2012.

by anica.padilla 5/27/2015 9:43:21 PM
Counting that as an over rule, as she did not get it kicked.

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:43:23 PM
I read in the Denver Post yesterday that the survivors can watch the entire trial. Including before they testify.

by Ann 5/27/2015 9:43:49 PM
We can't even guess on sanity until we hear from doctors even though they are laying the ground work

by Niki C 5/27/2015 9:43:50 PM
- Objection
AND... defense approaches to object.

by anica.padilla 5/27/2015 9:44:01 PM
Wonder what the DT thinks of their client. Is this a difficult case for them to defend?

by Jaclyn Green 5/27/2015 9:44:08 PM
This witness must have some DT damaging info to provide...

by Robin 5/27/2015 9:44:20 PM
REALLY?

by 1918 5/27/2015 9:44:33 PM
AC so condescending.

by Julie 5/27/2015 9:44:35 PM
We would really like to know what the defense is objecting to, so that we could get an opinion from our legal expert, but...

by anica.padilla 5/27/2015 9:45:15 PM
An objection by the DT...??? How rare...

by Robin 5/27/2015 9:45:17 PM
Are you kidding me?

by Suzanne 5/27/2015 9:45:18 PM
wth??? Why can't she object in front of everyone? This is getting old!

by Tammy 5/27/2015 9:45:21 PM
Up to 38..... 5 more to tie the record......

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:45:22 PM
@anica do you say "gunman" because of the no notoriety request?

by Niki C 5/27/2015 9:45:25 PM
What in the world is she objecting to now?

by Liz 5/27/2015 9:45:27 PM
@NikiC: Whenever possible, yes. But also because he admits he is the gunman - by pleading not guilty by reason of insanity.

by anica.padilla 5/27/2015 9:46:51 PM
@Julie, Compare him to King......

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:46:53 PM
I certainly wouldn't want to be in the DT's shoes...

by Robin 5/27/2015 9:46:56 PM
@Liz, anything and everything......

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:46:59 PM
Why in the world can't she object in open court? I think this looks REALLY bad on the defense...like they are hiding things from the jury

by Niki C 5/27/2015 9:47:01 PM
Speaking of Anderson Cooper, the "real" one has an excellent video on youtube demonstrating what it is really like to experience schitzophrenia.. Not fun at all!

by Barb 5/27/2015 9:47:34 PM
The prosecution will get their chance and it will probably be much like DT now.

by Julie 5/27/2015 9:47:36 PM
Thanks Anica

by Niki C 5/27/2015 9:47:51 PM
So the Jury cannot hear what the objection is and sway them.

by NT8 5/27/2015 9:47:52 PM
@NT8 you know that's the truth! Sometimes I think her and Spengler are in competition to see how many objections each can get! lol

by Liz 5/27/2015 9:48:25 PM
And she (DT) keeps on saying, "Let me look at my notes!"

by Amy 5/27/2015 9:48:26 PM
Jurors are being shown a DVD recording of the gunman's presentation given in May 2012.

by anica.padilla 5/27/2015 9:49:22 PM
@NT8 - if he sustains it, they can't take into consideration but it would still be recorded in open court

by Niki C 5/27/2015 9:49:24 PM
