Aurora theater shooter sentenced to life in prison
http://www.9news.com/story/news/local/aurora-theater-trial/2015/08/07/theater-shooting-trial-sentencing-life--prison/31284981/CENTENNIAL – A jury in Arapahoe County has reached a decision after deliberating only six-and-a-half hours over the fate of the gunman who killed 12 and injured at least 70 others in an Aurora movie theater in July 2012.
The jury reached their verdict at 2 p.m. After a three-hour warning in order for victims' families to make their way to the Arapahoe County Justice Center, Judge Carlos Samour read the verdict. The verdict was read at 5 p.m.
The jury of 12 could not reach a unanimous decision, so the court automatically sentenced James Holmes to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Should be executed if you ask me.
Here are some of the comments. Some are stupid and insane.

Brian, I guess you don't understand our Justice System ,nor the Constitution of the United States as it pertains to Justice ! This was a hard decision for all of those on the Jury And I won't second guess their verdict !

The jury is a bunch of bleeding hearts, and should be ashamed.
Death penalty was to be the result, a bunch of losers.
Bleeding Hearts=Scum

Greg Wangler Two years is about right. Put carrot top into gen pop. That would be a just sentence.
I like that idea.
Don Carlon · University of Colorado Denver
Greg Wangler And they need all the other moronic statement of you and others !
Projecting are we?

It was the most horrendous of crimes that James Holmes committed. But I don't know if being on that jury and saying yes to Part 1 putting a man to death would be something I could, in good conscience, do. I would have to own that for the rest of my life. I think the jury did a tremendous job going through the judicial process to reach this verdict.

Thank goodness! He is clearly not in his right mind. I hope he ghets the help he needs.
He is angry and entitled. Case closed.

The reason he did not get the death penalty is because Colorado is full of pansy liberals. Don't live in a state full of lpansy iberals or you might be the next to die in a gun free kill zone.
Colorado has become infested with leftists.

Maybe a majority of Coloradans are not as blood thirsty as some of you had wished ! Please take note that 23 States have vote to elimate death penalty in their states , Nebraska is the latest to do so !
Here you go again. Projecting again.
Don Carlon · University of Colorado Denver
Gary Stefancik You a perfect example why Colorado doesn't want Texans here !!!! Please leave if you live here !
Typical liberal. What is your DU name?
Don Carlon · University of Colorado Denver
In the next few years the Supreme Court will most likely once again outlaw the Death penalty in this country ,as will the State of Colorado !
Liberals=Vile And Hateful
