No other verdict would provide appropriate justice for what he did.<br /><br />I have no doubt he is as crazy as a bedbug, but I also have no doubt he knew what he was doing at the time and he knew it was wrong.

A complete lack of empathy for your fellow human doesn't mean you're crazy, it means you don't give a shit. Therefore, we shouldn't give a shit about putting the needle in your arm. Holmes needs to be guilty as charged.

That to me shows that the person who committed the offense is guilty and that they have no other way of defending their client. However, this dirtbag knew exactly what he was doing by dressing in his ballistic gear and going into a theater he knew would be packed and mirdering these innocent people. Rather than waste taxpayer funds and many years appealing, I hope he gets life in prison without the possibility of parole. This way all the billy bad asses in prison will make his life miserable to the point he offs himself.
