Theater shooting trial day 18: Notebook to be introduced into evidence

The Aurora movie theater shooting trial – People vs. James Eagan Holmes - resumes after a 4-day weekend. Today, prosecutors are expected to call two state-appointed doctors who evaluated the gunman after the shootings. 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

@Me: JH seemed very pleased with listening to the first 911 call. Hearing all his gunshots!

The jury has left the courtroom. Judge Samour hearing arguments on whether to admit 3 emails from dsherlockb@gmail account. They contain hearsay and statements from CU administrators. The emails mostly deal with scheduling of tours and training, but also euthanasia of animals. Defense considers the euthanasia email inflammatory.

In the 2008 Batman the Joker burnt the money and the Chinese guy from the mob. But in Batman Begins in 2005 at the very end of the movie there was burnt Joker cards.

JH swivels his chair but he's listening to AC.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:19:24 PM
@Kristle has he looked at the camera today?

by Joey 5/26/2015 6:22:15 PM
I wish he would stop spinning in his chair. So much. Lol.

by Angela Freeman 5/26/2015 6:22:19 PM
@Anica do you have anyone in the courtroom today?

by Joey 5/26/2015 6:22:21 PM
It's so sad such a brilliant mind and He ruin's his life and others.

by Abrandt 5/26/2015 6:22:25 PM
@Joey: Not today.

by anica.padilla 5/26/2015 6:22:43 PM
Can someone tell me the reference of AC?

by TR 5/26/2015 6:22:46 PM
@TR: He looks kinda like Anderson Cooper

by Stephany 5/26/2015 6:25:25 PM
@tR. some of us think the lead pros looks & acts like Anderson Cooper

by Valm46 5/26/2015 6:25:26 PM
@Joey: Nope, not at all today. But his stealy eyed attorney has! The one on his right in the purple blazer, lol. She seems as interested in the camera as much as JH is.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:25:28 PM
AC is Mr. Brauchler = looks like Anderson Cooper, lol. AC!

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:25:59 PM
Judge Samour says the jury needs to know what the gunman was like in the year before the shooting and if there was a change in his behavior/attitude.

by anica.padilla 5/26/2015 6:26:40 PM
Ahh, gotcha

by TR 5/26/2015 6:26:42 PM
"It is reasonable to allow documents that predate the spring of 2012... these go to his interactions," Judge Samour says.

by anica.padilla 5/26/2015 6:27:55 PM
I think it is weird that every time JH stands up, he puts his hands in his pockets.

by Leah Ryan 5/26/2015 6:27:57 PM
@TR, people have nicknamed the prosecuting Attorney George Brauchler, Anderson Cooper or AC.

by Liz 5/26/2015 6:28:01 PM
I forgot who we said King looked like, lol.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:28:03 PM
"I think [the jurors] need to know what was Mr. Holmes like before the spring of 2012. How did he interact with people... and did those things change at some point?"Judge Samour says about emails.

by anica.padilla 5/26/2015 6:29:05 PM
Howdy doody to me!

by Valm46 5/26/2015 6:29:07 PM
Oh I remember. King looks like the older guy on Walking Dead.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:33:54 PM
I'll be back. Gonna grab some lunch.

by Joey 5/26/2015 6:33:56 PM
Emails have property value.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:33:58 PM
The 2 men sitting to the left of AC are detectives. They were the first to interview JH and record his statements, but why are they still at the table?

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:37:25 PM
Where's NT8 today?

by AJS 5/26/2015 6:38:08 PM
@AJS: a funeral I believe.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:42:58 PM
@AJS. Funeral I believe

by Valm46 5/26/2015 6:42:59 PM
@AJS: NT8 went to a funeral today...I think its for that police officer he mentioned last week, but I'm not sure.

by Barb 5/26/2015 6:43:00 PM
Go AC!!

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:43:02 PM
@AJS - NT8 is at a funeral today

by Suzanne 5/26/2015 6:43:04 PM
@ Kristle that's interesting. I didn't know that's who they are!

by Me 5/26/2015 6:43:05 PM
I did 2Q objections for NT....did someone do 1Q objections?

by Valm46 5/26/2015 6:46:15 PM
@Me: they seem to be "in the way" of AC or just in general. They might have some sort of seniority in the police dept so nobody is asking them to sit BEHIND them. What is their property value, lol.

by Kristle 5/26/2015 6:46:16 PM
When will the notebook be available for the public to see in entirety? Does anyone know when/if Dr. Fenton will testify?

by Madison 5/26/2015 6:54:19 PM
@ Kristie - They are serving as expert consultants for the Prosecution. Something to that effect was established when each of them testified as they are the only witnesses (except maybe JH) who are permitted to be in the court during testimony and testify, too.

by NH 5/26/2015 6:54:21 PM
The detectives sitting at PT table are advisory witnesses. They are the lead detectives for the case and have an extensive knowledge of it

by Mike 5/26/2015 6:54:22 PM
Apologies - comments will not be updated for about 45 minutes. See you after lunch.

by anica.padilla 5/26/2015 6:54:44 PM
@Kristle, it's not unusual for the lead detectives to sit with the prosecution. They are there to advise.

by Liz 5/26/2015 7:37:36 PM
lol probative not property value. hey guys. i was listening driving to class and back but haven't been able to keep up much. tornado came through last night and we have no cell service in the town where i work.

by sydnijmm 5/26/2015 7:37:37 PM
@sydnijmm: The judge has a heavy accent - I thought he was saying "property" for the whole first day!

by anica.padilla 5/26/2015 7:38:08 PM
i did too! lol. i just didn't want everyone to think it was property value anymore! i love his accent though. does anyone else want to be his friend? haha. i think he's a very good, reasonable judge.
