Experts: If Holmes found insane, he’s unlikely to be freed
DENVER (AP) — If James Holmes is found not guilty by reason of insanity in the Colorado theater massacre, he would be committed indefinitely to the state mental hospital and could — in theory, at least — be released someday.
But psychiatrists and attorneys say that’s highly unlikely, given the enormity of the shootings and the notoriety they have generated.
“He doesn’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell of ever walking off the grounds of the Colorado state hospital,” said Dr. Steven Pitt, a forensic psychiatrist based in Scottsdale, Arizona, who works on criminal cases but is not involved in the Holmes case.
In a real world, the minute he is cured of his mental disorder is when his murder penalty begins.
