AURORA, Colorado — The suspected Batman movie premiere gunman was seeing a university psychiatrist specializing in schizophrenia before the shooting that killed 12, court documents showed Friday.
James Holmes sent a notebook to Lynne Fenton, who teaches at the University of Colorado’s medical school and heads student mental services there, that included details and drawings depicting his planned mass killing, according to reports.
It was unclear when the package reached the school, and officials remained tight-lipped due to a gag order imposed by the judge overseeing the case.
But Arapahoe County District Judge William Sylvester unsealed a defense motion to order authorities to hand over the package Holmes sent to Fenton, claiming it was “protected” communication.
The motion also said Holmes’s constitutional rights had been violated by the “breach of confidentiality and privilege.”
In a preview of likely battles to come, the defense lawyers argued that the contents of the package should not be used as evidence because “Mr Holmes was a psychiatric patient of Dr Fenton, and his communications with her are protected.”
Holmes, who was studying neuroscience in a doctoral program at the University of Colorado Denver, is expected to be charged with 12 murders and 58 attempted murders at his next court appearance on Monday, when he is due to be formally charged over the July 20 shooting.
Sylvester granted a hearing on the defense motion also be held on that day.
Fenton’s research focuses on schizophrenia and other major mental illnesses.

Colorado Batman shooting: judge prevents release of James Holmes school records
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/9431817/...
Much speculation surrounding the 24-year-old's possible motive in gunning down 12 people and wounding 58 more at a screening of Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises," has focused on his time studying neuroscience at the school.
School documents are usually available under the Colorado Open Records Act, but District Court Judge William Silvester cited a provision that bars the public from viewing open records "prohibited by ... the order of any court.

--...he wandered out of the theater and almost waited for police who, as we learned, almost mistook him for a S.W.A.T. member, except for the fact, you know, I'll say this according to the sources because I learned it a different way, he was wearing the wrong kind of gas mask.
If Homes was apprehended with a gas mask on, then there is no way the gas mask found in the road 200ft away belonged to the suspect. Two gas masks--two suspects.
when its a man theyre schizophrenic -when theyre a woman they says its post par-tum depresseion
