Not sure whether it was this thread or the Theater Shooting one where we were discussing "why a theater? why the Batman movie?" -- But this article has interesting info about surrounding theaters. (Let's try not to start up the political debate here on guns, though). The author argues JH picked...

Do we know what JH did for the 2010-2011 school year besides submitting applications for doctoral programs? I know this thread is not supposed to be a discussion, but it seems like the best place for this question.

July 5, 2:21 pm - signed for his Tactical Gear order. http://tacticalgear.com/news/colorado-shooting/

But then why not get "next day air"? http://tacticalgear.com/shipping-policy Tactical Gear Shipping Methods

Yes, he went back to the store July 1 to have the scope installed. Good point! He didn't have night vision goggles or anything like that, right? You know, I always thought it was weird that he paid extra from 2 day shipping on his Tactical Gear purchase on July 2. The rush order didn't make...

Good point about pants. I'm not sure about the seating. I think the front row would be the last to fill.

Hmmm....theater door probably not "kicked in" as doors open outward. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8b0cvpogv1qhi5nfo2_400.jpg

So, I'm the sophomore who parked in the back. I arrived about 15 min. before JH. How do I KNOW this to say it to a reporter? Am I hanging out in back, waiting for CPG to let me in? He does eventually, but no one notices me sneak in AND I've been out back waiting long enough to SEE JH arrive?

Wow--I think you could be onto something here. Wish we had more details. This is what I've got: POI's phone makes threatening call to police. POI out of the country and can't be found. POI interviewed. POI roommate in weird construction outfit day of shooting. POI not of interest. All's well...

Thinking about the timeline and reread this (Lucero was in a different theater): "arrived 15 minutes before Holmes"??? Anyone have an idea what this could mean? Or is it just reporting license... How does anyone know when JH arrived...

Just had a thought! What about the weird "let Holmes out of jail!" call after his arrest? Wasn't that made thru some weird IP rerouting? Didn't they at first think that came from JH's cell phone? I'll have to check...maybe he had set an earlier call to dial hospital to look like it was from his...

Yeah, I don't think happened either, but I'd wondered about it too. The pretext for leaving the theater is also a good hypothesis, but since he didn't say anything, why make a call for that. He could have just held up a phone to his ear. I wonder if Corbin thought he heard the guy speaking on...

Does "planned" mean sane/rational? Couldn't someone be seriously delusional and plan for months, or are delusions not sustainable for that length of time?

Good point, HC. I'm just not convinced he was "Cell Phone Guy." I think CPG could have been someone entirely unrelated. Coincidence. Someone's eyewitness account said that they saw the door kicked open.

I was wondering about this too! Hmmm....

Well, he could have had everything on except the head gear before he made the call.

Do I have this right? A lot happened in few minutes. The chaos must have been unbelieveable. http://www.newsnet5.com/dpp/news/national/police-scanner-dramatic-first-minutes-of-aurora-colorado-shooting At 12:05 the movie starts in Theater 9 At 12:31, the phone call is made At 12:39, gas...

HastingsChi, are you talking about the CNN timeline? The UC hospital said the call was made at 12:31 (really sounds planned, no? "set plan in motion at 12:30. Make phone call. Get dressed. Enter") Seems to mesh up, no? But not sure it meshes with the "cell phone guy's" phone call--that all...

Does anyone else think it's weird how RF said "I can NOW tell you..." Why couldn't he before? Has the gag order been lifted for this stuff? What other stuff can be told now?
