DRDC (Denver Recption and Diagnostic Center) is the processing center for DOC (Department of Corrections) located in Denver and then he will be placed in the facility DOC deems necessary based on his sentence. Death Row is currently in Sterling Colorado and at Sterling Correctional Facility. If he is sentenced to death that is where he will be and he will not be allowed to exit his cell but for an hour per day to exercise.

@Nadine Yes that's Phil

@FPsych I've said that a few time in the last fews weeks, since the Guilty verdict came in JH has lost some serious LB's

by Della (Me) 8/6/2015 8:08:09 PM
For those discussing the Boston Bombing, the trial was held in federal court, which has the death penalty. The great majority of residents in Mass. are against the DP, as were the parents of the youngest victim.

Judge now addressing the gallery with the admonishments for outbursts

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:08:29 PM
Just made it. I had errands to run earlier. Hello, everyone.

by LoriJ 8/6/2015 8:08:34 PM
Anyone know if this judge been on DP trials before? If so, how has he decided (DP or LWOP)?

by Jen 8/6/2015 8:08:36 PM
@sher- crush Carlos- LOL!!

by TLR 8/6/2015 8:09:12 PM
energize the jury to respect all life peace only comes to those who realize it is within themself ; otherwise you are only contributing to misery...All international and universal laws espouse that you have failed life, if as a civilian you kill, and most esp. heinous is a mentally depraved or ill person. Unthinkable

by messenger 8/6/2015 8:09:21 PM
Jury being brought in now

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:11:23 PM
what is judge talkin about there has been 1 issue lol

by Anne 8/6/2015 8:11:25 PM
Miss Tish Macguire needs to clean up her PC's desktop.

by Lynn 8/6/2015 8:11:26 PM
JH must've thought judge ruled no emotional display for him.

by BluesB 8/6/2015 8:11:28 PM
@Jen the Judge isn't making that decision the jury is

by LG 8/6/2015 8:11:30 PM
closing of a lifetime.....

by mandi 8/6/2015 8:11:31 PM
Don't know if I can handle Brady's voice for 40 min.

by AW 8/6/2015 8:11:32 PM
@MyraJ...maybe to some beatboxing...

by Kels 8/6/2015 8:11:33 PM
Jury is back, but not 661. She is watching from another room, because she is coughing

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:12:38 PM
Also unthinkable is the fact JH chose to slaughter 12 people and destroy the lives of their loved ones. I came into this with an open mind but my mind is made up now.

by Sue 8/6/2015 8:12:49 PM
@anne only one issue that was visible to the public. they had multiple run-ins with that person before and now they are probably expecting more since this is the very end.

DA reminds jurors they've seen 60 days of testimony. 306 witnesses. 15 weeks.

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:14:15 PM
I am here, finally. This will be the last time I sign in with you guys, unless the jury comes back with a verdict tomorrow. I am leavin g on Saturday to see Sailor in Japan... My new CHIEF Sailor!

Objection to "evil" overruled

He is not mentally ill....jury found him sane & legally morally culpable for killing 12. He showed NO MERCY. In fact quite the opposite. 'Sending the jury urging of true justice for yhe 82+ who are forever affected, over here in this area...

by BluesB 8/6/2015 8:15:34 PM
@ bluesB LOL emtional display

by emma 8/6/2015 8:15:35 PM
Here we go, ladies and gentlemen...

by Kels 8/6/2015 8:15:37 PM
@ messenger - I respectfully disagree. The citizens of this state (me included) have voted for and do approve the DP for certain crimes, circumstances, etc. This is EXACTLY the kind of case and crime that was indicated in that decision. Godspeed, jurors.

by Rusty 8/6/2015 8:15:41 PM
Here we go!

by Tired 8/6/2015 8:15:42 PM
is 661 a deliberating juror?

by mandi 8/6/2015 8:15:43 PM
Swivel X 30000

by BluesB 8/6/2015 8:15:44 PM
DA reminding the jurors of each of their deliberations

by Phil Tenser 8/6/2015 8:15:52 PM
@LG: I thought the judge decides if the jury checks box 2 (unanimous decision LWOP) or 3 (not a unanimous decision for DP)? Then decision goes to judge

by Jen 8/6/2015 8:15:57 PM
Mr. B sounds like he is giving the State of the Union address. He is a jerk

by notfordp 8/6/2015 8:16:03 PM
Phil, does the court order prohibit the media from reporting on the demeanor or presence in the court of families? Just wondering why we've heard little about the demeanor of the gunman's parents and whether his sister is in court?

by Sophia 8/6/2015 8:16:07 PM
Hearts going out to the victims' families and Mr. Brauchler. Oh, I love how' he started the same way as his opening.

by LoriJ 8/6/2015 8:16:10 PM
I suppose Brady will keep jumping up to object. She looks like she's ready to spring out of her seat.

by Nadine 8/6/2015 8:16:12 PM
Good luck DocJ!

by Anne 8/6/2015 8:16:14 PM
Take the 12 points away, GB!!!!

by BluesB 8/6/2015 8:16:15 PM
How dare her
