CO - James Holmes Trial - *Penalty Phase* #2

[Maisiebelle]

You know what gets to me? All these people, the ones who have stepped up to speak for the shooter ...... If they had been in the theatre that night he would have shot them dead without a second thought!

Classmate of JH is on the #theatershooting witness stand. Again, witness says JH was very shy.

#theatershooting

JH interacted shyly socially. Took work to get him to come out with them. Once comfortable, it was seamless

He became “part of the gang” but never initiated.

Funny - hanging out. Playing truth/dare. Someone had LG jar of pickles. JH walked down hall & asked if anyone wanted one

Called coupons “Coups”. JH was the smartest member of the honors dorms.

JH never got in trouble, never mean, disrespectful of anyone.

When he heard of the shootings, he thought JH was a common name and not his friend from college. Googled it and knew

The Gold Patrol® ‏@thegoldpatrol · 53s53 seconds ago
#theatershooting

To this day it’s hard to believe. There’s 2 separate people i know. Completely out of character.

 

[LyndyLoo]

At least this guy is being honest..He wouldn't admit he considers him a friend today after what he did...Unlike the previous adults/parents!!

 

[zoey]

Finally--someone will say NOPE to the shooter as a friend!!!!

Chris thought Dad took more time to articulate what he wanted to say than JH, but JH was socially awkward. Dad worse.

Chris Holmes says it's a little awkward testifying about her parents while they sit in #theatershooting courtroom. Brother sits feet away.

The Gold Patrol® ‏@thegoldpatrol · 1m1 minute ago
#theatershooting

Family trips were often as kids, less often as they grew but still important and happened. Wanted strong family unit.

Anyone having a hard time with WS loading? Very very slow and I am about 2-3 pages behind the testimony.

Takes me about 7 minutes to reload a page at WS on computer. I've transitioned to Tapatalk on my phone for this reason. Use phone now for about 95% of looking at threads, and don't comment much at all due to phone is so difficult to type with. For this reason REALLY appreciate folks who put screen shots within the threads and do a quick summary on the links (as opening links on phone takes a bit of time)

 

[Maisiebelle]

I wonder if the parents will testify.

I was just about to post that my live feed keeps buffering & I get the message, 'not running due to long running script'. And WS pages not just slow to load but pages also freeze.
So, I be coming & going, but what I want to say now is - sister testifying about parents? Also, how what he was like in the past, is mitigating?????
