People don’t get it. The media don’t get it and they don’t want to get it. Billions of dollars are riding on the drugs Dr. Lynne Fenton may have prescribed to her patient, James Holmes, the accused Batman shooter.

And when billions of dollars in potentially lost revenue are hanging in the balance, the interested parties take action. They’re serious about their money. They don’t screw around.

You see, if James Holmes was, for example, taking Prozac, all of a sudden no one wants to take it. If doctors prescribe it to patients, the patients say, “Hey, wasn’t this the drug that nutcase took before he killed all those people in the theater?”

Aurora theater shooting charity investigated by police ( link )

Fania declined to reveal what website was being investigated or the names of those behind it but said the detective conducting the investigation believes criminal charges likely will be filed.

Aurora began investigating the suspicious site after receiving tips from concerned individuals who noticed it on the Internet.

Enough concerns have been raised about other fundraising efforts that the Colorado Attorney General's office is looking into some sites it considers suspicious. In addition, a Facebook page devoted to Aurora shooting victims is no longer publicizing efforts by private parties seeking donations.
 
Scott Smith Attended 'Dark Knight' Screening In Ohio Heavily Armed For Protection, Lawyer Says ( link )

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A northeast Ohio man brought a gun, ammunition and several knives to a showing of the latest Batman movie because he wanted to protect himself in case someone tried to replicate last month's deadly Colorado theater shooting, his attorney said Tuesday.

[...]

Smith brought the weapons to a Regal Cinemas theater in Westlake, just outside of Cleveland, and seated himself in the middle of the theater's back row a half hour before the movie started, police said.

[...]

The officer said Smith consented to a search inside the theater. Arcuri said the officer was more familiar with the bag, and he knew where to look when he found a loaded 9 mm Glock pistol with two extra loaded magazines, Arcuri said. The officer also found three knives in the bag and another knife on Smith, he said. There were also medical supplies, but Arcuri would not elaborate on what they were.

[...]

Police searched Smith's North Ridgeville home Monday night and found more weapons, including at least six pistols and several shotguns and rifles, and thousands of rounds of ammunition. They also found more than one bulletproof vest.
 
Police Audio Raises The Possibility There Were Multiple Shooters In The 'Dark Knight' Massacre
Aug. 7, 2012, 5:51 PM


At a July 20 press conference Aurora police Chief Dan Oates said investigators were confident that James Holmes acted alone in the largest mass shooting in U.S. history by casualties and that authorities were "not looking for any other suspects."

But doubters are citing official evidence to question that Holmes was the only shooter, or a shooter at all.

(CNN) -- Hours before Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes faced another court hearing, his lawyers Thursday asked the presiding judge to reject a request by media organizations, including CNN, to unseal the full court record in the case.

Holmes' lawyers also called Thursday for a court website to stop listing publicly available documents in the case.

University Of Colorado Begins Investigation Into James Holmes After Aurora Shooting
Posted: 08/10/2012 2:19 pm Updated: 08/10/2012 2:30 pm


The University of Colorado is investigating its staff's communication with James Holmes, a former graduate student at the CU Anschutz Medical Campus, in the months leading up to a mass shooting at an Aurora movie theater.

Concerns about Holmes reportedly surfaced in early June. However, the Ph.D. candidate quit the doctoral program June 10 -- three days after failing an important oral exam. Reports now confirm that he bought an assault rifle right after the exam.

The University of Illinois released documents from Holmes' application process to become a neuroscience graduate student at the school, complete with a personal statement and a photograph of Holmes in sunglasses pointing a strand of hay at a llama.

"Those who met you ... during your interview visit felt that your personal and professional qualities are truly outstanding and that you will be an excellent match for our program," said the Illinois acceptance letter from professor J. Lee Beverly .

Holmes' application reveals his grade-point average from the University of California at Riverside was 3.94 on a 4.0 scale, that he was Phi Betta Kappa member and his GRE verbal score was in the 98th percentile and quantitative score was in the 94 percentile. His analytical writing score was in the 45 percentile.
 
Update on Fitz Apartments

Manager who rejected Holmes apartment application lived in the building and is now an evacuee.
Joanne Southard, who is the manager of the Fitz Apartments, along with her son and two grand children are among the evacuees.

"The kids keep asking me where we're going to be sleeping," Southard told 9NEWS. "I tell them we're going to be sleeping on the floor."

Southard is frustrated as she tries to find a new permanent home for her family, more so, she doesn't understand why someone would set the fire.

"No one can ever give me an answer as to why anybody would be that mean to trap all of us - they didn't just block us in. They trapped us in," Southard said.

Security camera tapes turned over to police:

Southard, the maintenance manager (I think husband of Joanne), said he also oversees security video for the buildings.

"Last night it caught every minute of it that was going on out here. The cameras in between buildings caught it all," said Southard.

Southard said he turned that video over to Aurora arson investigators.

Investigators told Kost that they obtained security video from the apartment building and nearby businesses.
