Defense: Shooting suspect was seeing psychiatrist
DENVER – The former graduate student accused in the deadly Colorado movie theater shooting was being treated by a psychiatrist at the university where he studied, according to court papers filed Friday.
Defense attorneys for James Holmes, 24, made the disclosure in a court motion. It sought to discover the source of leaks to some media outlets that Holmes sent the psychiatrist a package containing a notebook with descriptions of an attack.
The motion said the leak violated a judge's gag order and jeopardized Holmes' right to a fair trial.
