MSNBC reports that public records show Holmes lived with two roommates at the apartment, which is reserved for students, faculty and staff from the medical campus.

It matters because ABC is making up news, not reporting it. Heaven knows why

Three witnesses said he was not alone in the operation. Only the police are saying he worked alone.

ABC wouldn’t be able to tape it without her consent.


Not all states are equally stupid. Many states only require that one party consent to the recording. That includes the party making the call.

If you don’t want to be misquoted, don’t give a statement.

I can almost hear ABC salivating for a suit and their chance at discovery on every aspect of this woman’s life.
Not everybody has an entire news media running around trying to clean up their statements.

Not cool.

The media, and the mother from which it never detaches, the government, have been and always will be the enemy. The Founders got it.

The call was made at 5:45am. Those who went to sleep before the midnight movie screening/shooting did not know the “news”

Reporter: “do you have a son named James Holmes in Aurora?”
“You’ve got the right one”

Was she woken up by the reporter or had she been “racked with pain” over what happened all night long?

It seems to be taking her response out of context. Meanwhile, others in his circle may have been prior informed.

He was a quiet man who played his stereo loudly.

Police and FBI agents were called to the University of Colorado Anschutz medical campus in Aurora on Monday morning after the psychiatrist, who is also a professor at the school, reported receiving a package believed to be from the suspect. Although that package turned out to be from someone else and harmless, a search of the Campus Services' mailroom turned up another package sent to the psychiatrist with Holmes’ name in the return address, the source told FoxNews.com.
Do things really happen this way?

First ask, "Who is this" and next go "click".

You can bet the ranch they have a tape of the conversation. 100% sure. If it cooberated their story they would risk the backlash and release it. Almost all taped conversations are legal as long as one party is aware of it.

This article is dated July 20. The day of the shooting.
The mother made her statement a few days later.

Evidently so. If I was the parent of one of the slain, I think this news would make my head (or heart) explode. Of all people, psychiatrists should keep on top of their incoming mail, wouldn't you think?

"Three witnesses said he was not alone in the operation. Only the police are saying he worked alone."

How can the police say he worked alone if there were witnesses saying that a smoke bomb was thrown from the other side of the theater?

Me thinks the police caught the accomplice and are keeping mum about it because he is not white.

They called her the morning of the incident.

The mother made her statement at 0545hrs the day of the incident.

It is easy to understand that it took her a couple of days of dealing with the fact her son did such a vile thing before she could pay attention to the media. It was then she rightfully issued the statement calling ABC a liar.

That's a good point.

As in, "young male, 18-28, of Middle Eastern descent, who speaks Arabic"? Or is that just a generic "not white"?

Yes, co-perpetrators who’ve suddenly disapeared. Isn’t that suspicious! Particularly as his two ‘roommates’ now seem to be nonexistant.

This investigation/case has been sealed by a judge. Why?

To protect the rights of James Holmes?

Or so shield the persons, presumably from our government, who may have set this up but not intervened in a timely manner?

Not that Hillary, Obama and Holder would ever break a few eggs on the way to Utopia!

If this guy was involved in OWS’s anarchy kooksville (Black Block), I would be shocked if the DOJ had not infiltrated and known what was happening.

Early on, but now scrubbed from the internet, Leftists were saying Holmes was one of their’s. I can promise you this - we will never know just like we don’t know about McVey’s abettors that never were.

My point wasn’t really about whether or not there is a tape of the conversation, though I suspect there isn’t, since it was 5:45 in the morning and the producer probably didn’t take the time to get a recording system set up, and because I don’t think even ABC would be stupid enough to lie to the lawyer about a non-existent tape that they would then admit did actually exist. My point was that the mother sounds like she’s got something to hide, given the way that she lawyered up right away and had her attorney make an inquiry about whether a tape existed before she made her statement saying that she didn’t say what the producer said she did.

Mosk said today that he awoke Arlene Holmes and informed her that a man, he believed was her son had been arrested in Aurora and asked to confirm their relationship.

“You have to tell me what happened… You have to tell me what happened,” the woman on the phone said, according to Mosk. Mosk said he told her that ABC News had learned the 24-year-old had been identified by police as the lone suspect in the mass killing in Aurora, Colo and that the details of the events were still taking shape.

“You have the right person,” was her response, he said. “I need to call the police. I need to fly to Colorado.”
