Just that I was going to do a semaphore. 169 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: The incentiar Joys is the next day, you are hearing 170 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: the quote dark Night James Holmes talking to the shrink 171 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: about the night before the mass shooting, and he says, 172 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: quote Ashley Wilcot, judge, lawyer and anchor at Ashley Wilcott 173 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 1: dot com. Ashy says, just quote just another day. It 174 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: was just another day. Here's something that bothers me about 175 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: this interview. Not only does he say, oh, it's just 176 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: another day, nonchalant, no big deal, I'm gonna go kill 177 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,920 Speaker 1: a bunch of people, but he also talks about the 178 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 1: feeling of disdain that he had had. I stand by 179 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: when I speak about prevention. Someone should have noticed, been 180 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: aware of the fact that this individual was suffering through 181 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 1: delusional thoughts to sdain things that could result in something 182 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: like what he did. Someone should have said something. We 183 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: are talking about a stunning release of documents, audio and 184 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: video and the investigation of the Dark Knight James Holmes. 185 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 1: Take a listen to Holmes speaking to psychiatrist doctor WILLIAMS. 186 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: Reid explaining why he chose a site so close to 187 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: a police station, the tactics and strategy. We talked a 188 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: little about how close the police station was, yeah, fight 189 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: minutes right, Yeah, And we talked a little about what 190 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: led you to choose a venue that close to a 191 00:14:55,160 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: police station. Can you reiterate some of that for me, 192 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 1: or think about that again from I just figured I'd 193 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: be caught because there was a police presence in that area, 194 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: but I would still have time to do even the 195 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: same We talked briefly, and I'd like to revisit it 196 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: about considering places where you wouldn't be caught, or you'd 197 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: be less likely to be caught, or you could shoot 198 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: more people before getting caught. Places not supposed to the 199 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: police station, right part of it? Whether I was comfortable 200 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 1: in the movie. Theater is a place I was used to. Okay, 201 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: tell me more about that. I hadn't heard about that before. Well, 202 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: I did all the recon there to get familiar with 203 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: the ways, whatever. But you could have done recun somewhere 204 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: else further from a police stage. True, but I kind 205 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: of decided that was the place to be. You chose 206 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: a place near a police station. Why do you suppose 207 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: you chose a place near a police station. I didn't 208 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 1: choose it for that reason. I disagree. I think that 209 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: was one of the reasons you chose it, So I'd 210 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 1: like to I'd like you to speculate with me, except 211 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: for a moment, my hypothesis that at least part of 212 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: the reason you chose that was because it was close 213 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 1: to a police station. Why might you have chosen it 214 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: close to a police stage. I had no idea think 215 00:16:53,960 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: about it for the menu because I wanted to be stopped. Well, 216 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 1: he took twelve lies before he was quote stopped. Now 217 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: listen to kr doot based Crystal story. His eyes are wide, 218 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 1: but his voice is emotionless. His zie incendiory devices I mean. 219 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: He recalls the mass shooting he committed at this movie 220 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 1: theater in Aurora, thirteen people murdered, seventy more injured, but 221 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: in these interviews he doesn't know the difference between them. 222 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: Did you make any attempt to shoot certain kinds of people? Who? Men, women, big, small? 223 00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, just people in the theater. He says. 224 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 1: This plot to kill innocent people was meant to be 225 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: random because it was impersonal and it's something I could 226 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 1: actually do. I was more going for the people who 227 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: were shocked were misfortunate because they're there are like thousands 228 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: of thousands of theaters and seats, and they were in 229 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: the long line at the wrong time. His reason for 230 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: taking the lives of so many. But if you kill them, 231 00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: then you're not dealing with them, ter avoiding them. Just 232 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,639 Speaker 1: a few weeks later, we find Homes in a different 233 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: room where he has a lack of empathy for what 234 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 1: he did. He was only one amend the rest of 235 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 1: an Laden's face, that's okay. The man we see in 236 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,560 Speaker 1: these rooms is far different from the killer pictured in 237 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 1: his mugshot, red hair and wide eyes, but his difference 238 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: in demeanor didn't change the outcome. Too. Karen Stark Psychologists 239 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: joining us from Manhattan at Karen Stark dot com. Karen, 240 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: now that you've heard his voice and you hear him 241 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: no empathy, it's like he quote didn't want to deal 242 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 1: with people. What do you make of it? What's your analysis? Well, 243 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 1: that's what I was trying to subscribe to you, Nancy. 244 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: That's an asset that's such common. If you listen to 245 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: the tape Bundy takes them for release been recently released, 246 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: it's the same flash affect, that lack of tone and emotion. 247 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: I just did it. Maybe it was unconscious that I 248 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: wanted to be caught. He just doesn't care, that's the 249 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: whole thing. He's just out there to create as much 250 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: damage as he can, but without any kind of empathation. 251 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 1: It really shows how much feelings have nothing to do 252 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: with this at all. As they were leaving, he witnessed 253 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: baby and infant get shot. But yeah, they said gas 254 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: bombs as they were leaving, and then just gunshots all 255 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: over the place. He came in and he started lighting 256 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 1: a gas can and he threw it into the crowd. 257 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: At that point, he shot his first fire into the 258 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: ceiling to scare everybody and they just started scattering and 259 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: mass chaosks just happened. He pointed the gun at you. 260 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: Did you see him looking at you? Or was he 261 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 1: just pointed the gun directly at my face? I was 262 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: just terrified and I just jumped into the aisle and 263 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: just started crying. How far was he standing from you? 264 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 1: About four or five feet. It was a few seconds 265 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: before he started to move, and that those few seconds 266 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: were when it took best to figure out that he 267 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: wasn't joking crime stories with Nancy Grace. You are listening 268 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 1: to crime stories with Nancy Grace. Our country will never 269 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: forget that Aurora police dispatch. Listen. I can't hear you. 270 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 1: I can't. Oh my stars, take a listen. Unable to 271 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: find a job, Holmes moved to color At last fall 272 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: and appeared to be nothing more than a quiet and 273 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 1: easy going graduate student. But it was a different Jim 274 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: Holmes who showed up at the San Diego pawn Shot, 275 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: where the owner says Holmes sought tips on firing the 276 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 1: guns he had planned to use. We carry all of 277 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: those firearms in stock. Verry specifically remember James Holmes's face 278 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: last night. Neighbors at his Aurora apartment building, said they 279 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: heard loud techno music coming from his apartment, with the 280 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:29,840 Speaker 1: recorded sounds of gunshots added in. Holmes was already at 281 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: the theater at the time. What's odd is what really 282 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: brought up the red flags for us is the apartment 283 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 1: complex is very quiet. There's no noise, nothing, and then 284 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you know, yesterday night and midnight 285 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 1: this morning, music starts about a nowhere. That was kind 286 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 1: of odd because no one throws parties from that apartment. 287 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: And then Holmes apparently attempted to make himself into the 288 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: Joker character of the Batman series. According to a briefing 289 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: given to the New York City Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly, 290 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: he had his hair a painted red. He said he 291 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: was the Joker. You were hearing our friend at ABC, 292 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: Brian Ross as he is reporting on the Aurora mass shooter, 293 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: James Egan Holmes, also known calling himself the Dark Night. 294 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: He was speaking with David Casper Or the owner of 295 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: the San Diego Pawn Shot where Holmes purchased some of 296 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: the weapons and ammunition. To Stephen Lampley, former dutative, what 297 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 1: do you make of him decorating himself to be the 298 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 1: joker in Batman. I'll answer this guy's obviously as as 299 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 1: the psychiatrist said, he's mentally unbalanced, but he's saying I mean, 300 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: he was saying that he's got some mental, obvious mental 301 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 1: issues that he's had back from I think eleven years 302 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 1: old when he tried to commit suicide the very first time. 303 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: He's obviously wanting to. He was into action figures. He 304 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: was into that, realm into that thing anyway, as he 305 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 1: told the psychiatrist, I assuming he was just wanting to 306 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 1: portray himself and perhaps go out as that character. Listen 307 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 1: to this police a. Holmes told them he was extremely 308 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 1: calm throughout the evening because he had taken the powerful 309 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: painkiller vicodin about two hours before the attack. His final step, 310 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: police say, was to booby trap his apartment, which they 311 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 1: say was so full of chemicals and incendiary devices that 312 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: it may be days before the bomb squad can figure 313 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: out how to diffuse them. I see an awful lot 314 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 1: of wires, trip wires, jars full of ammunition, jars full 315 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: of liquid, some things, things that look like mortar rounds. 316 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 1: We have a lot of challenges to get in there safely, 317 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: as with all mass shootings victims and their families are 318 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: left wondering why. Experts say in such cases, parents often 319 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: know without specifics that something is wrong. You're hearing the 320 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,679 Speaker 1: Aurora Police Chief Daniel Oates speaking to Brian Ross at 321 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: ABC News. He had the place so booby trapped, Karen 322 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,960 Speaker 1: Start and any plood insanity, He claimed. The defense was 323 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: insanity here and start. How can you go do rec 324 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: on at a multiplex? How can you go to the 325 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,959 Speaker 1: pawn shop and buy all these guns and Ammo? How 326 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 1: can you booby trap your apartment to play disorienting techno 327 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 1: music with gunshots laid in booby trapping for when the 328 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 1: cops finally do get there and be insane? Karen's dark, Oh, Nancy, 329 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: he was having a bob. This has nothing to do 330 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 1: with insanity. He picked the Joker because the Joker was 331 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 1: such a deepous character, and this guy was joining getting 332 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: it over the police, booby trapping and making everybody wonder 333 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: what was going on. That's not insanity. He knew exactly 334 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,199 Speaker 1: what he was doing, and he wanted to get as 335 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 1: many people as he could, and he wanted people to 336 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: see him as this ingenious, devious character. That's why he 337 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: caused him just a joker. To John linly, what more 338 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: can you tell me about how he dressed up as 339 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: the Joker and about that arsenal of weapons. Well, there 340 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,719 Speaker 1: at the theater, you could see none of the joker 341 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 1: costume that he had because he was completely covered in 342 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: essentially tactical riot gear. He was all in black. You 343 00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 1: wore a gas mask, a ballistic helmet, bullet resistant legging's, 344 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: throat protector, groin protector, tactical gloves. And he threw these 345 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 1: two canisters into the theater as soon as he walked in, 346 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: And of course everybody thought this was part of a show, 347 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 1: that it was part of some sort of sort of 348 00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:31,679 Speaker 1: publicity stunt for the movie. But then very quickly they 349 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,960 Speaker 1: realized these canisters of smoke, they are making their eyes 350 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: burn and their skin itch. He then starts firing, first 351 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: into the ceiling, then into the crowd. He fired as 352 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:48,719 Speaker 1: Smith and Wesson MMP fifteen semi automatic rifle that eventually malfunctioned, 353 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 1: so he switched to a Glock twenty two forty caliber. 354 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: He shot first at the back of the room. One 355 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: witness said that she was hesitant to leave because someone 356 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,680 Speaker 1: yelled that you know, someone was at shooting in the 357 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: lobby two. All said Holmes fired seventy six shots into 358 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: the theater, six from the shotgun, sixty five from that 359 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 1: semi automatic, and five from the forty caliber with me 360 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: John Linley Crime online dot Com, investigative reporter, Karen Start 361 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,800 Speaker 1: psychologist at Karen dot com, Stephen Lampley, renowned detective, and 362 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 1: Ashy Wilcot judge, lawyer and anchor.

James Holmes calling himself the 383 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: Dark Night, dressing up as the Joker that evening in 384 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 1: tactical gear. He was armed to the teeth. He had 385 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 1: been amassing weapons for some time. Prosecutor's release audio video 386 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 1: of the quote Dark Night James Holmes speaking to his psychiatrist. Listen, 387 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: I think you said you had never fired a gun 388 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: before you ordered these these reds. Is that? Um? I 389 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: fairly like a paintball gun, but no like a firearm, Hope, 390 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 1: which was the very first one that you fired? The 391 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 1: guns that you're going um, it was either the handgun 392 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: or will celebrate that would have been added buyers or 393 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 1: added buyers. Virus was the only that was the only 394 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: place that something except for this year, So it was 395 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: a block twenty two. Next one was the shotgun. Next 396 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 1: was the second clock or the A the R, the AAR, 397 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: and then and then the second clock. Right, No other 398 00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: wed friends were purchased, and I believe no more firearm? Right? Um, 399 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 1: do you think that you didn't fire any of them 400 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: until you had the AAR? That depends on when the 401 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: ammunition came in, because I think I started buying the 402 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: ammunition after a month the AAR. Okay, did you purchase 403 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: any ammunition level? Um? Like cartridges, a box of chocoun chills? 404 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,080 Speaker 1: And I guess, I guess what I'm trying to to 405 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: understand it is the first time you went to buyers. 406 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: How many of the weapons did you have a lot 407 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: of them? Are just a couple of all of them? Are? 408 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: I would say all of them? So you had all 409 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 1: or nearly all the weapons before you fired any of them, right, 410 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: you know? Karen, Despite the fact that he pled insanity 411 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 1: because where else could he go? It wasn't me. Despite 412 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: him claiming he was insane, after all of these hours 413 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: of psychiatric interviews, he was deemed to be sane. Karen, 414 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 1: start why because he knew exactly what he was doing 415 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,719 Speaker 1: and he enjoyed it. Nancy, it took months for him 416 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: to set that up, and it was very dramatic. This 417 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:23,719 Speaker 1: was fun for him. This is how he gets us 418 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: just going out there killing people. He knew what he 419 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: was doing. We all can see that. We are dissecting 420 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: hours and hours of audio video of the so called 421 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: dark Night. James Holmes, the Aurora Cineplex mass shooter, claiming 422 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: the lies of thirteen, He said, quote he didn't know 423 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: whether to die or drive away or where he would go. 424 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: He left it up to the spur of the moment. 425 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: Then he says he felt quote uncomfortable being handcuffed when 426 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: police found him. Let's take a listen to the so 427 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: called dark night in his own words, Among the things 428 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 1: that you right as symptoms or things that were happening 429 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: to you in June and July, in terms of symptoms 430 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: or brief periods of invincibility, Remember that, Yeah, when I 431 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: was like driving to the gym and I could of 432 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 1: revolt invincibund in my car. Tell me about that, Um well, 433 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: I just didn't tell me in more than half a sentence. 434 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 1: Brief periods of invincibility would usually happen when I was driving, 435 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: So I go hold the speedlet invincibility and quite context 436 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: or that I couldn't be hurda in terms of having 437 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 1: an accident, during terms of bulletproof, or in terms of superhero, 438 00:31:54,320 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 1: any of those. Right after that, brief periods of Min's 439 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 1: ability come up. Actions are in hyper speed. Yeah, time 440 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: would seems to speed in d way. Tell me what 441 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: I would just seemed much? I was going places? Faster? 442 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: Anything faster? How much faster? Twice is fast? Twice is faster? 443 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 1: No faster than that? Not too hyperspeedi, I guess, And 444 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: you're getting it exactly what I was getting at. If 445 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: I watch a video at twice speed, it looks a 446 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: certain way, the movements are recognizable. You can figure out 447 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: what's going on, right, So it would still be the 448 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: one speed. What it would feel like the hyperspeed. Okay, 449 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: these audio video recordings just released. But how did we 450 00:32:54,040 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 1: get here? This is an ABC News special report. Least 451 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 1: fourteen dead, fifty injured. A lot of those injuries are 452 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: severe after a lone gunman opens fire in a theater 453 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: outside of Denver, Colorado, and Aurora. And we want you 454 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: to listen actually to this cell phone video that's just 455 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: now coming into the ABC newsroom. This will be the 456 00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: first time that we've actually seen or heard this video, 457 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: So take a listen. I don't think we're not not 458 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: moving here. You can hear the penic and hear the chaos. 459 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: You can see kind of the folks scrambling to get 460 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: out of almost have been a horrible scene, and it 461 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: just brings back these memories of Columbine, It brings back 462 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: memories of Virginia Tech, these other mass shootings that the 463 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,120 Speaker 1: country has seen in recent years, and just makes you again, 464 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: as always, wonder what could have been the motivation, Who 465 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: was this guy, why would he do this? And what 466 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: appears at this point again to be a very well 467 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,640 Speaker 1: planned attack, not only because of this explosive device he 468 00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: brought in, this cannist which reportedly could have been tear gas. 469 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: He came where it came with multiple weapons. He had 470 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: explosives allegedly back in his apartment. This was obviously not 471 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 1: someone who snapped almost spur of the moment. This was 472 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: someone who plotted this for whatever reason we do not 473 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 1: know just yet, but this was someone who deeply intended 474 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: to inflict harm and take life in so far he 475 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 1: was taken fourteen or you're in the third row, and 476 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: so was he as he's coming? Did he stand there 477 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,719 Speaker 1: or does he continue to move the entire time? He 478 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,799 Speaker 1: continued to move, But it was a few seconds before 479 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: he started to move, and that those few seconds were 480 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,439 Speaker 1: when it took best to figure out that he wasn't joking, 481 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: because I did immediately think that he was joking. I 482 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: thought that the canister that he threw into the audience 483 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: was like a smoke bomb or like some firework. I 484 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 1: thought that the rifle was maybe like a Roman candle 485 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: that he was shooting off. And then I realized that 486 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: as you looked at the rifle, it wasn't a piece 487 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: of flame shooting from the barrel. It was the bullet 488 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 1: igniting out of the barrel. And did you then start 489 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,839 Speaker 1: to ingest whatever was in that canister? No, he threw 490 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: it behind the lower section of the theater, so it 491 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 1: all much rose to the higher the lifted seats um 492 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: We were really really lucky to not get that in 493 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,759 Speaker 1: our faces. Eventually traveled down, but at the very very end, 494 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,839 Speaker 1: and it wasn't as it was diluted at that point, 495 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,439 Speaker 1: so it wasn't as strong. Did you guys get any 496 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: injuries at all? Any nothing too big. I just have 497 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,279 Speaker 1: scrapes and stuff, but nothing like. So you're in front 498 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: and there I mentioned, there aren't as many people that 499 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: are as close as you are. People usually sit back. 500 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: So are you witnessing? Are you seeing what's going on? 501 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: Are you seeing people falling and people being injured? Yeah? 502 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 1: If you as, if you looked back, you could see 503 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,879 Speaker 1: all the people getting shot. I mean you could see 504 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: people falling, you know, down the stairs, people you know, 505 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: kids and women and children screaming. You could hear it. 506 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 1: I mean, even though it was really loud and the 507 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 1: movie is still going and there's a lot of gunshots, 508 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 1: and it was really hard to tell what was happening where. 509 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: I mean, if you were to looked back, you could 510 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: see at all. But I came my head down. There 511 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: was this one guy who was on all fours crawling. 512 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: There was this girl's spitting up blood. There were bullet 513 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 1: holes in some people's back, some people's arms. There was 514 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: this one guy who was stripped down to like just 515 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: his box series. It looked like he had been like 516 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 1: shot like in the back or something. It was. It 517 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 1: was crazy. I'd say we were out fifteen minutes in 518 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: and there was a chase scene where there was gunfire 519 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 1: on screen, and right then, out of nowhere, on the 520 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: right side of us, we just heard a low, very 521 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: distinct pop pop pop pop, and you know, my wife 522 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:18,640 Speaker 1: jumped and I kind of sat there. I was like, oh, 523 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: it's probably just really good special effect, you know, sound effect, 524 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 1: because my wife said, no, that's really distinct. She said 525 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: that a man about six feet tall, taller than her 526 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:32,279 Speaker 1: kicked through the door and he was in a like, 527 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: she said, a riot helmet, she said he was. It 528 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: had a bulletproof vest on, you know. She said that 529 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 1: he was completely covered in all black with goggles. And 530 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: she said that after that point, when she saw that 531 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: he was holding a shotgun, her and her boyfriend dropped 532 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: to the floor and just kind of started to crawl 533 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: to see if they could get away. They got up 534 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: and they started to run through the emergency exit. Um. 535 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: She said that when she turned around, all she saw 536 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 1: was the guy slowly making his way up the stairs 537 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: and just firing people, just picking random Karen Stark, this 538 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: has got to be like salt being poured in the 539 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:18,400 Speaker 1: wound of all the victims families. Yet on the other hand, 540 00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: it's public information and the public has a right to 541 00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 1: know this. But how will this affect the crime victims families. 542 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: It's hard to imagine that it could be any worse 543 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 1: for them than it already is. Natty, I mean that 544 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 1: what they can see is that there was no particular 545 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: reason for why this happened. This was the highlight of 546 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:44,280 Speaker 1: this guy's life. He did this, he wanted to create 547 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 1: this sensation, and unfortunately for them, their family was part 548 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 1: of a plan that had nothing to do with human beings, 549 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: with continued life, with a love of life, and it 550 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 1: was just terrible, terrible agony and misfortune that they were 551 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: a part of this.
