Dylan Thomas Bieniulis says he is familiar with record keeping at The Science Company. Edson will soon introduce evidence of purchases

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 2:55:01 PM
Haha, Syd! She does!

Exhibits 359 and 360 being shown to Dylan Thomas Bieniulis and a defense attorney

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 2:55:27 PM
@Angela, I think for the most part defense attorneys do their best keep their personal feelings out of the equation, but I'm sure in some cases it must be difficult.

Dylan Thomas Bieniulis: "These were initially purchased by James Holmes." His initials are on the invoice and he says he recalls the transaction.

If they were really not speaking with JH he would get a mistrial under ineffective counsel, no?

by jj1114 5/12/2015 2:56:40 PM
Wow, she didn't object......yet!

by Liz 5/12/2015 2:58:03 PM
She is coiled like a tiger just waiting to Pounce!

by NT8 5/12/2015 2:59:05 PM
Yes, but I still wonder how much he talks to them and what he says..

by KP 5/12/2015 2:59:44 PM
Dylan Thomas Bieniulis says the purchase on July 14 included electrodes

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 2:59:48 PM
@NT8...you know she is...it's coming! lol

by Liz 5/12/2015 2:59:50 PM
I wonder what the prosecution's plans are for proving JH was not insane. "He planned it carefully" I believe will be too weak.

by Angela Freeman 5/12/2015 2:59:51 PM
Dylan Thomas Bieniulis says it also included metal bars, dish, glycerin, potassium permagenate, ammonium chloride, magnesium ribbon, dc motor with leads, black alligator clips, mortar and pestle,

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:01:09 PM
They are his only friends right now. He better be talking to them lol! It would be silly not to.

by Angela Freeman 5/12/2015 3:01:10 PM
I think it all depends on how the jury interprets the rules on what insanity consists of.

Dylan Bieniulis using pointer to explain the invoice from The Science Company

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:03:02 PM
agree with you @jj i think their job is just to plant the right seeds.

Looks like there is a new piece of evidence waiting to be unveiled under the black tarp...curious as to what it is....

by Stephany 5/12/2015 3:05:41 PM
I wonder what the new model under the tarp is....

by NT8 5/12/2015 3:05:42 PM
@Angela, all the testimony from victims and others, plus the evidence they've presented so far is part of the plan to show he was not insane. However, at the end of the day, it's all about what the jury thinks and decides.

by Liz 5/12/2015 3:05:44 PM
Would love for my video to work again.

by KP 5/12/2015 3:07:13 PM
I would think buying raw chemicals like JH did would somehow have to be reported to an authority as suspicious, especially if the type and quantity may ignite.

by Kristle 5/12/2015 3:07:14 PM
FYI, we are now reading a new court document. Not related to this testimony, but related to CU, Dr. Fenton and the notebook. We'll tell you more asap

Dylan Bieniulis "He kinda kept to himself, looked around for about 10 minutes, picked up a few items and brought them up to the counter"

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:08:13 PM
Dylan Bieniulis noticed defendant was picking up a lot of electrodes and DB offered to help him to find more

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:08:40 PM
@NT8...since they're still talking about the chemicals he purchased, maybe it's a model of the apartment complex he lived in? I guess we'll find out soon enough.

by Liz 5/12/2015 3:08:58 PM
Annnd she objects!

by Liz 5/12/2015 3:09:30 PM
3 for 3 over ruled!

by NT8 5/12/2015 3:09:31 PM
boom boom! two in a row!

by sydnijmm 5/12/2015 3:09:33 PM
cross will be short.

by NT8 5/12/2015 3:11:35 PM
Judge asks attorneys to approach prior to jury questions

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:11:46 PM
FYI @Anica is working right now on the newly published court order. It basically says that a lot of contested information about correspondence involving CU, Dr. Fenton, the notebook and the ex-girlfriend are all admissible.

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:12:52 PM
I think evidence like this where just anybody can buy the chemicals in the Science store will incite copycats to make IEDs.

by Kristle 5/12/2015 3:12:55 PM
judge has been a little far from the mic for my ears the last couple days.. testimony is loud compared to him.

Jury asks Dylan Bieniulis about defendant's demeanor: "very quiet, very calm. beyond that, no .. uh... nothing really exciting. just very quiet and kept to himself."

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:15:03 PM
Dylan Bieniulis released from his subpoena.

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:15:13 PM
@kristie i think anyone who really wants to make IEDs will probably use less kosher methods to do so. lol

The people call Nick Carroll, who worked for Aurora PD in CSI

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:16:35 PM
Plus JH had the science background and all.

by jj1114 5/12/2015 3:16:37 PM
Nick Carroll: Was working 4p-2a on the night of the shooting

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:17:55 PM
Nick Carroll: Was at the lab doing paperwork, getting ready to go off duty when he heard the radio call

by Phil Tenser 5/12/2015 3:18:22 PM
Alright, I've got things to do today. Maybe back later!

by KP 5/12/2015 3:18:43 PM
Does Spengler even know what's going on.
It seems like her objections don't makes sense half the time

Nick Carroll asked what he saw at the theater. Defense objects, Prosecution argues that they are asking for his observations. Judge calls attorneys to approach.
