Theater shooting opening arguments present conflicting profiles of killer

Opening arguments in the Colorado theater shooting trial have revealed key information about the case, including the fact that two state-mandated mental evaluations found the defendant to be sane.

Defense lawyers admit that defendant James Holmes is the gunman who walked into a crowded midnight premiere of a Batman movie premiere in 2012, but they argue that he was in the grips of a psychotic episode. Holmes is pleading not guilty by reason of insanity.
