Aurora theater shooting trial day 31: Judge could decide whether to dismiss a juror whose relative was shot

Day 31 in the Aurora movie theater shooting trial – People vs. James Eagan Holmes. Today, the judge could decide to dismiss a juror whose relative was shot last week. 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

Bet they're all wishing they could access social media right about now.

by geohas3 6/15/2015 3:23:30 PM
I bet they are talking about making plans for after the trial...or a grocery list...or something important like that.

by Tired 6/15/2015 3:23:34 PM
Next they will take their 20 min break. This is where the judge is a joke.

by Jeffers04 6/15/2015 3:23:59 PM
Crap, now I can't type ms. Teesh McGuire requested whatever this issue is be in open court. Maybe she knew it would take a long time.

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:24:00 PM
Guess something is coming up the DT doesn't like today.

by Angela Freeman 6/15/2015 3:24:52 PM
This judge is great. Very professional and careful.

by Angela Freeman 6/15/2015 3:26:08 PM
Am I being blocked? My comment never came up?

by Suzanne 6/15/2015 3:26:11 PM
Feed is fuzzy and it keeps pausing so idk.

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:26:12 PM
@Suzanne: Not on purpose, post it again.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 3:26:36 PM
What can they be discussing that takes so long!!

by Tjq 6/15/2015 3:26:38 PM
@Angela: Agree, something Ms. Nelson feels strongly about.

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:26:41 PM
Agreed Angela! I think so too!

by Tammy 6/15/2015 3:27:13 PM
Compared to the Jodi Arias judge this judge has control of his courtroom

by Cathleen 6/15/2015 3:27:14 PM
I believe they will be discussing more emails today and a Microsoft employee will be classified as an expert witness.

Good Morning...I'ts Monday...

by Robin 6/15/2015 3:28:33 PM
It's obviously got the DT very bothered whatever it is. Look how fast King is swiveling.

by Angela Freeman 6/15/2015 3:28:36 PM
@ Susanne my first comment didn't show either

by Tjq 6/15/2015 3:28:53 PM
King likes swiveling in his chair.

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:28:55 PM
this is unbelievable

by wendy 6/15/2015 3:28:56 PM
Geez and I thought it took long to check out at walmart, but this takes the cake

by JG 6/15/2015 3:28:58 PM
What is that Higgs handed to Edson (sp?)

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:30:20 PM
I just logged in, how long has this sidebar been going on?

by BL 6/15/2015 3:30:22 PM
This is rekonk.

by McGruber 6/15/2015 3:30:25 PM
This poor jury, they have been waiting for over an hour.

by Suzanne 6/15/2015 3:30:33 PM
I guess the Judge agreed to keep it in the dojo (sidebar).

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:30:36 PM
James has all the time in the world now.

by Mark 6/15/2015 3:30:40 PM
does Orman only own 1 suit?

by wendy 6/15/2015 3:30:42 PM
@JG I agree. Walmart... The store that drives me nuts

by Tjq 6/15/2015 3:32:37 PM
Good Morning, looks like I haven't missed anything. Did anyone see the article on a different local station about prosecution has had therapy dogs at the trial everyday to help those that have been testifying. I thought it was pretty nifty.

by DocJ 6/15/2015 3:32:39 PM
Gm, all. Longest sidebar ever?

by jward12 6/15/2015 3:32:50 PM
This is crazy. What's Nelson up to???? She requested the sidebar.

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:32:52 PM
Suits all look the same to me. Lol.

by Angela Freeman 6/15/2015 3:32:54 PM
wendy which one is orman

by Tara 6/15/2015 3:32:56 PM
Maybe he's got a closet full of the same suit, like a superhero.

by Angela Freeman 6/15/2015 3:32:58 PM
@wendy: LOL!! Teesh McGuires wearing the same dress she wore before. JS! And always with the black tights.

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:33:04 PM
- Breaking News
Judge Samour: Juror 901 will be released after a family member was shot last week.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 3:38:04 PM
@Angela: Superhero Orman!!!! LOL!!!!!!

by Kristle 6/15/2015 3:38:08 PM
@DocJ...that is very cool! I did not see that article but I can't imagine what the survivors are going through having to relive this all over again.

by Tammy 6/15/2015 3:38:10 PM
lol

by wendy 6/15/2015 3:38:12 PM
We've been watching this trial for over a month. We're bound to see a few repeat outfits. But I agree, Orman prefers his tan one. At least we haven't seen the Ricky Martin one on King again (yet)!

by jward12 6/15/2015 3:38:17 PM
the Oman twins again today!! LOL

by jbs 6/15/2015 3:38:18 PM
