I suppose there are many reasons why a defendant wouldn't want to be in court. Fear, or maybe aggressive and can't be trusted or simply misbehaving! It's good to know justice would still be served - with or without their presence.

I'm pretty sure he has to be declared competent to stand trial for the trial to take place. Meaning he is able to be seated in the court room and have a basic understanding of how the court processes work to allow him to aid in his defense.

If he hadn't been declared competent to stand trial, they would reevaluate him until he is. And continue with the trial then. He can't just decide to sleep in and not show up.

Thank you. So if the defendant was sick he would be able to stay away but the trial would go ahead. Otherwise he should be made to appear?

May 31st JH didn't express any issues with his meds #theatershooting #TheaterTrial
 
a few seconds ago

Dr. Feinstein on why he didn't press the gunman for more details: "The concern is that he'll drop out of care altogether and that was something we really did not want to happen."

Dr. Feinstein is back on the #theatershooting witness stand. They weren't sure what information JH was withholding from therapists

----------------------------------------
Larry Ryckman ‏@larryryckman · 45s45 seconds ago
They were concerned that if they pressed too hard, JH would drop out of therapy and they didn't want that to happen. #theatershooting

Dr Feinstein wasn't understanding why JH was dropping out of Grad school. JH said the school wasn't a good fit #theatershooting
 
Larry Ryckman ‏@larryryckman · 56s56 seconds ago
Feinstein: JH said he planned to stay in Colorado after dropping out of grad school. Said he would probably get a job. #theatershooting

JH walked out of the office early, saying he had another appointment to disenroll from school. No time for discussion. #theatershooting
 
Larry Ryckman ‏@larryryckman · 52s53 seconds ago
Feinstein: "He seemed less anxious and more relieved." No change otherwise in his demeanor. #theatershooting

----------------------------------
Hsing Tseng ‏@HsingTseng · 29s30 seconds ago
Feinstein: we offered JH free treatment but after he dropped out he had no interest. Left appt early, seemed relieved. #TheaterShooting

Larry Ryckman ‏@larryryckman · 42s43 seconds ago
Feinstein: He didn't meet criterion for involuntary commitment. No target, no specific plan, no indication he had weapons. #theatershooting
 
Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 58s58 seconds ago
JH didn't meet criteria to put on a mental hold. #theatershooting #TheaterTrial

-------------------------------------------
Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 45s46 seconds ago
If therapists knew of what JH was doing such as the planning of the shooting they could have locked him up for 72 hrs #theatershooting

Here is the link to the G chats with Ben Garcia: bit.ly

Feinstein reiterates what he said yesterday: no criteria at time to put JH on involuntary psych hold. JH said had no plans. #TheaterShooting

--Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 2m2 minutes ago
At time JH's thoughts were logical #theatershooting #TheaterTrial

Hsing Tseng ‏@HsingTseng · 40s40 seconds ago
Defense cross-exam: you don't have any notes of your meetings with Holmes, right? Feinstein: that's correct. #TheaterShooting

----------------------------------------------------
Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 57s57 seconds ago
Defense points out JH said a lot he wanted to kill people and he told therapists at start of therapy #theatershooting #TheaterTrial

---------------------------------------------------
Jen's Trial Diaries ‏@TrialDiariesJ · 2m2 minutes ago
In Fenton's notes she said JH wanted to kill as many people as possible. #theatertrial #theatershooting
