Psychiatrist had 'alerted' security team about 'Dark Knight' killer | | James Holmes, who allegedly killed 12 and injured 58 during the screening of 'the Dark Knight Rises' at a
movie hall in Aurora, Colorado, was earlier brought to the attention of a threat
assessment committee at the University of Colorado, but no action was taken because
he left the premises more than a month before carrying out the massacre. The members
of the threat assessment committee were responsible for protecting the school
from potentially violent students. According to ABC News, Dr. Lynne Fenton, the
psychiatrist who was treating Holmes, 24, at the school, was also a key member
of the assessment team. KMGH-TV, ABC News' affiliate in Denver , cited sources
as saying that by early June, Fenton had informed other members of the team about
her concerns regarding Holmes. But on June 10, three days after Holmes bought
an assault weapon, he suddenly told the university that he was dropping out of
the neurosciences doctoral program with no explanation. Sources claimed that the
threat assessment team never had a formal meeting and never intervened, believing
that it had no control over Holmes once he had left the university. |
