Aurora movie theater shooting trial day 32: CU psychiatrist Dr. Lynne Fenton expected to testify

CU psychiatrist Dr. Lynne Fenton is expected to testify on day 32 in the Aurora movie theater shooting trial – People vs. James Eagan Holmes. 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

The gunman told Fenton he was addicted to Diablo 3 and had played 100 hours in the past 2 weeks.

Marti--gotta say, with all due respect, your hindsight is 20/20.

The gunman told Fenton he was reading about the Unabomber and the Tylenol Terrorist. Fenton said that concerned her.

I personally think people should give Fenton a break. Hind sight is always 20-20 and it's not like he told her of his plans and what he was up to. You can't lock up everyone who shows signs of mental illness.

I agree. Not her fault. Not anyone else's fault.

Right NH...the law states they person has to show an imminent threat to themselves or others...imminent being the key word...

When something happens that people don't understand, they always look for someone to put blame on.

And needs to be sued.

I agree hindsight is 20/20. It is rather easy to see JH thoughts through his statements now, after we have been exposed to all his thoughts.

I kinda feel bad for Fenton.

Tamara Brady's shaky voice is hard to listen to. Borderline irritating.

The Law has since changed so they can commit people easier. Under the new law she could have committed him.

by Abrandt 6/16/2015 9:35:53 PM
She did her Job but I am surprised that she did not ask more questions.

by Sheri Reining 6/16/2015 9:35:55 PM
Problem is the anti-gun and pro- gun crowd seem to both agree that unless the wackos in society are flagged by their healthcare professionals as a risk to themselves or others, there is *nothing* preventing this from happening again. Not that JH couldn't have probably bought a gun anywhere - but he should have been flagged as ineligible to purchase firearms. The shrinks, the social workers and everyone involved in that capacity - epic fail.

needs/deserves to be sued

by NT8 6/16/2015 9:36:11 PM
NT8--You are studying James Holmes. Does that meet the specs for needing incarceration? Should the bookstores that sell those books Holmes was reading be closed down?

by flip 6/16/2015 9:36:17 PM
@NH giver her break?! She has had one for over two years....
