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

@TammyGarrison: Generally loss prevention involves security and surveillance to stop theft.

Barborak said the gunman made a purchase at Gander Mountain on July 1. He bought a scope.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 7:50:32 PM
According to testimony from ATF Agent Steven Beggs, the gunman had already dyed his hair orange when he bought the scope at the Gander Mountain store.

I'm working and listening, but who keeps clicking their pen. It's driving me crazy. I realize that is a short road trip, but stop please. ; )

LP involves shrink(loss of product through theft internal and external, inventory integrity dealing with item on-hand discrepancies etc) as well as usually involved with company safety as it pertains to customers and associates

Everytime a new message appears, the blog "clicks"

by lildeuce32 6/15/2015 7:57:21 PM
@Anica that's interesting about him changing his hair color that far back... @Suzanne I don't hear a pen clicking :(

by LG 6/15/2015 7:57:22 PM
We have a very detailed timeline of the gunman's purchases and activities leading up to the shooting. Check it out here: bit.ly

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 7:57:55 PM
The PT that is doing the questioning is clicking his pen- he's been doing it for weeks, every time he's at the podium.

by Victoria 6/15/2015 8:00:27 PM
Ha...@Suzanne someone mentioned last week that Mr. Edsel (sp?) clicks his pen while he questions witnesses. I don't hear it but I guess they were right. :-)

by Lori Butterfield 6/15/2015 8:00:30 PM
You can turn the sounds off for the comments on this page maybe that's what your hearing Suzanne?

by LG 6/15/2015 8:00:35 PM
Don't understand why they are getting so sticky today. Its not like its been a whole lot different than from previous testimony. I mean, he DID by the scope, right? And does this lay foundation for that video to come back in or was it just comments about the video that are stricken from the record?

by Tammy Garrison 6/15/2015 8:00:43 PM
anybody here ever rode the short bus? Just wondering.......

by NT8 6/15/2015 8:01:10 PM
- Judge's Order
Objection sustained... not clear what it was.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:01:41 PM
It's definitely a pen double click like in and out. I think it is the attorney guy. I forget his name.

by Suzanne 6/15/2015 8:01:43 PM
Just click on the * next to the word Share to the far right and it will give you a pull down to make changes to the comment sounds :)

by LG 6/15/2015 8:01:44 PM
Where do I find the emails/chats that were published between Holmes and his Ex?

by Ruby 6/15/2015 8:03:18 PM
@Ruby: The chats are documented here, starting at page 30:

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:03:55 PM
I put children on the short bus after school.

by Tammy Garrison 6/15/2015 8:03:58 PM
If you want to mute the sounds, click the gear symbol, then choose sounds.

by Barb 6/15/2015 8:04:01 PM
Wow I wonder if you can hear that clicking with head phones in I don't hear it with just normal speakers on lol :)

by LG 6/15/2015 8:04:06 PM
The whole court room is muted and someone thinks they can hear a lawyers pen?? LOL

by Mark 6/15/2015 8:04:15 PM
- Objection
Defense objects to admission of Evidence #1102 - purchase records from Gander Mountain.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:05:03 PM
- Judge's Order
Overruled. Evidence #1102 - purchase records from Gander Mountain - allowed by judge.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:06:06 PM
I have been out all morning...have I missed any interesting testimony?

by Barb 6/15/2015 8:06:08 PM
@Anica what was the Judge's ruling on that object and on what grounds?

by LG 6/15/2015 8:06:10 PM
@Mark- he's at the podium on the microphone and you can watch him clicking his pen on the video

by Victoria 6/15/2015 8:06:19 PM
Judge is sounding more burnt out as the day progresses

by Tommy Talbot 6/15/2015 8:06:21 PM
That makes no sense. He purchased it, didn't he? And why Gander Mountain over other purchases? What is her deal?

by Tammy Garrison 6/15/2015 8:06:24 PM
Gunman used a MasterCard to pay for purchase at store in Thornton at 7:25 p.m. on June 7, 2012.
He purchased a sport rifle, pro plan for the firearm, 3 Bushmaster magazines, a shotgun sling and more ammunition. Total purchase price: $968.30.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:08:59 PM
They didn't object like this to other purchases. What is the big deal about a scope from Gander Mountain?

by Tammy Garrison 6/15/2015 8:09:02 PM
@Suzanne, the man at the podium is overly clicking his pen after every question. Now that you have mentioned it, I am really hearing it more prominently. It is totally separate and different than the new msg. alerts.

by mama d 6/15/2015 8:09:03 PM
Barborak said watched security video remotely from the corporate office in St. Paul.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:12:40 PM
- Objection
Defense objects - says this was covered at the bench.
Judge overrules - previous discussion was about a different piece of evidence.
Defense requests bench conference.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:13:08 PM
Do you have head phones listening to this @mama d?

by LG 6/15/2015 8:13:09 PM
@Anica all those purchases were used with the money from his Grants, correct?

by LG 6/15/2015 8:13:11 PM
Thumped again....

by NT8 6/15/2015 8:14:39 PM
higgs has her panties in a wad today.....

by mandi 6/15/2015 8:14:44 PM
Great another Approach.....
can we get more wated time here?

by NT8 6/15/2015 8:14:47 PM
*wasted

by NT8 6/15/2015 8:14:49 PM
@LG: It's not clear. He used 2 credit cards, so he may have purchased some items on credit.

by anica.padilla 6/15/2015 8:16:52 PM
are they seriously protesting the evidence that JH purchased the guns/ammo? Guess they just don't want video of him buying it -- too personal... online different

by mandi 6/15/2015 8:16:55 PM
Thanks everyone for confirming I'm not going crazy. Well at least in this incident. : )
