Talk:James Holmes (mass murderer)

Edit Request
He committed 12 murders and was convicted of 24 counts of first degree murder. Could someone knowledgable please add a line or two explaining this or defining the charges in more detail? 130.237.175.198 (talk) 07:28, 20 July 2017 (UTC)


 * I agree that is confusing, have you found anything about it? Neurohz (talk) 14:38, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
 * It says in the legal proceedings section about the two charges for each murder (and attempted murder) - one for deliberate and one for reckless indifference, and the sources outline how the prosecution were trying to cover the bases with both. Guess it needs to be mentioned in the intro in some simple way. Neurohz (talk) 22:19, 10 September 2017 (UTC)

THIS is a 2nd Edit Request - Can someone explain where the compensation-judgement money he was sentenced to pay is actually coming from? Or if it is a meaningless judgement if there isn't any money? The paragraph reads as if the judgement was made based on some substantial monies being available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.35.46.26 (talk) 18:02, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

James Holmes was sentenced to pay $851,493 to the Victim Compensation Fund and $103,385.95 directly to the victims – however, the ruling is considered to be largely a symbolic gesture as it is highly unlikely that he will ever make that much money in prison. While incarcerated, inmates are able to work a variety of jobs; people from outside are also able to transfer money through the JPay account system. According to the Colorado house law, the Department of Corrections automatically garnishes 20% of all income received by the offender in order to pay for the restitution fund.

Provable claim the city of Aurora had foreknowledge of the attack and failed to act
Hello, my name is Benjamin William Chesley. I have several pieces of evidence that would support a class action lawsuit against the city of Aurora due to their foreknowledge of all of the exact details of James Egan Holme's cowardly attack on innocent civilians. If you'd like to contact me I can be reached at my personal email address of darkbenrg@gmail.com  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benjaminwilliamchesley (talk • contribs) 13:19, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
