Suspect's demeanor angers families in Colorado court
James Holmes appeared in a Denver courthouse for the first time after the Aurora Batman shooting. The dazed, sleepy defendant wore a maroon jumpsuit and was virtually silent as prosecutors noted possible medications. Relatives, including Tom Teves, urged that justice be served as Holmes sat with eyes half closed. Experts weighed whether his behavior indicated psychosis, malingering, or both. The hearing confirmed Holmes hair was dyed red, linking him to the Joker motif.
