note King's body language at the defense table...he constantly looks around and seems like every word just passes him by...I think that is by choice...he does not want to hear this at all.

I like to think he is trying to get far away from the shooter---guilt setting in (I know I know.....:blushing:)
 
Since the family of "that guy" thinks they are victims can they also speak?

I don't know---BUT strongly doubt they would. They already spoke during other phases of this trial

Up now is Heather Bailey. Mom of Cailyn Bailey who was with Veronica during shooting.
Sorry, Caitlyn Bailey
Ashley dropped Veronica off to be babysat as she was going for her ultrasound

When they returned, they ordered pizza and talked about the movie. Debated if Veronica should go

She says she’s full of regret. Told Ashley she’s only 6 and would fall asleep quick so they went

Her daughter stared getting calls/texts from reporters.

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

Her daughter had to grow up fast and make adult decisions. Wouldn’t allow mom in when testifying
She suffers from PTSD and survivor’s guilt because she couldn’t save Veronica
Stopped going to therapy, struggled in school
In school she became known as “The girl in the theater
She has triggers - anniversary dates, Veronica’s B-Day or shooting date

Fireworks, sirens, and flashing lights scare her. Their marriage has become strained

We average 18-20 homicides in Aurora every year. You have to be a different breed to work homicide

There was no playbook for this case.
During this case I didn’t get to know all victims and i apologize

I had to stay focused and not get real emotional about it. I knew the large task about hand
I didn’t want to make a mistake

I spent over 100 hours with defense making sure this would be a fair trial

I had to think what kind of person could do this? Pure evil. no regard for human life

July 20, walking inside theater. i will never forget the victims laying in those positions
I’ll never forget the smell of the theater
I’ll never forget the smell of the theater
These victims were there to enjoy a movie

Looking back, i remember the outside of the theater on July 20 when I arrived @ scene
