James Holmes As Joker - His hair dyed orange-red and a dazed look on his face, James Holmes, the man accused of going on a deadly shooting rampage at the opening of the new Batman movie appeared Monday in court for the first time. An unshaven, handcuffed Holmes, 24, sat in maroon jailhouse jumpsuit as the judge advised him of the case. Holmes sat motionless, his eyes appearing tired and drooping.
At one point, he closed his eyes as the judge spoke. It wasn’t immediately known if Holmes was on medication. Authorities have said he is being held in isolation at the jail.
Police say Holmes, clad in body armor and armed with an assault rifle, a shotgun and handguns opened fire at the midnight showing of “The Dark Knight Rises,” killing 12 people and wounding 58 others.
He was arrested shortly after the Friday shooting. He is refusing to cooperate, authorities say. They said it could take months to learn what prompted the attack on the moviegoers.
Holmes was brought over from the Arapahoe County detention facility and walked into the courtroom with attorneys and others.
