Prosecutors have released hours of video showing Colorado theater shooter James Holmes’ interviews with a psychiatrist about the 2012 massacre in Aurora. The videos released Tuesday show Holmes being questioned by William Reid, a court-appointed psychiatrist who evaluated Holmes’ sanity.

Ooh, nice find.

I've never heard him speak before, it's interesting to hear his voice. He sounds exceedingly average.

There's also a video of him giving a Science Presentation 6 years before the shooting:
He seems like such a normal, intelligent guy; it's a shame what mental illness can do to a person.

James Holmes is kind of like Chris Watts they both lived in Denver, and seemed to successful people in their career but ended up committing evil crimes.

I am surprised he is not handcuffed in the interview what if he goes crazy and tried to bite the psychologist.

They could be giving him a sedative cocktail for every interview.
Of course only during the shooting did Holmes ever display unambiguous aggressive behavior.

I agree he was only aggressive and violent during the shooting, I read in jail somebody tried to jump him and he did not even fight back. I never read about him being violent before the shooting.
