James Holmes' psychiatrist warned police of threats, homicidal thoughts 38 days before shooting



Newly unsealed court documents in the James Holmes murder case revealed that his therapist warned a Colorado University police officer that Holmes had confessed to homicidal thoughts and was a danger to society 38 days before the shooting at an Aurora, Colorado movie theater.

Dr. Lynne Fenton told police in June that Holmes had intimidated and threatened her, for which he was banned from the campus.

That testimony contradicts earlier statements from Fenton who, in the days initially following the July 2012 attack that killed 12 people and injured 70 more, claimed she hadn’t warned any law enforcement of the former neuroscience student’s June 11 admission that he fantasized about killing “a lot of people.”

On June 12 Fenton told campus officer Lynn Whitten that Holmes had also sent threatening text messages, at which point Whitten deactivated his security card.

 Holmes purchased the AR-15 he allegedly used in the attack on June 13.

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show's called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they're going to make more shows.

Like you, I used to think the world was this great place where everybody lived by the same standards I did, then some kid with a nail showed me I was living in his world, a world where chaos rules not order, a world where righteousness is not rewarded. That's Cesar's world, and if you're not willing to play by his rules, then you're gonna have to pay the price.

You think water moves fast? You should see ice. It moves like it has a mind. Like it knows it killed the world once and got a taste for murder. After the avalanche, it took us a week to climb out. Now, I don't know exactly when we turned on each other, but I know that seven of us survived the slide... and only five made it out. Now we took an oath, that I'm breaking now. We said we'd say it was the snow that killed the other two, but it wasn't. Nature is lethal but it doesn't hold a candle to man.

You see? It's curious. Ted did figure it out - time travel. And when we get back, we gonna tell everyone. How it's possible, how it's done, what the dangers are. But then why fifty years in the future when the spacecraft encounters a black hole does the computer call it an 'unknown entry event'? Why don't they know? If they don't know, that means we never told anyone. And if we never told anyone it means we never made it back. Hence we die down here. Just as a matter of deductive logic.
