So he's made his way through his entire life never knowing right from wrong? If his family, friends, teachers, etc. we're asked that question, what would they say?
This was a very well planned out event, not a spur of the moment, knee-jerk reaction to something.
It should be a very interesting trial.
Jury summons' were mailed out to 9,000 residents in early December. Formal jury selection begins on January 20th and is expected to take 5 months -- looks like the judge is expecting it to be very difficult to assemble an unbiased jury of 12 primaries and 12 alternates.
If opening arguments begin in early June, it'll be just under 3 years from the time Holmes carried out the massacre at the movie theater. He's formally pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity and the prosecution is seeking the death penalty.
