James Holmes Trial 911 Dispatch Calls

James Holmes, 24, accused of opening fire at a Colorado movie theater, appeared dazed in court on July 23, 2012, the first time he had been seen in public since he allegedly killed 12 people and wounded another 58 during a showing of the new Batman movie. He said nothing in the courtroom and spent much of the hearing looking down, his head drooping at times. He demeanor ranged from a glassy bug-eyed stare to appearing to be nodding off. Holmes, 24, appeared in court unshaven with a shock of dyed reddish-orange hair, and a prison jumpsuit that appeared to conceal a bulletproof vest.
