James Holmes in the courtroom

From left to right: Defendant James Holmes (in glasses), Public defender Kristen Nelson and Public Defender Dan King react聽as photographs of 10 of the deceased victims in the Aurora Century 16 theater are shown to the jury on a big screen in the courtroom.聽 Jurors cried and victims鈥 families left the room when their loved ones were shown.聽 To be fair, they were warned before the unfathomable horror show started.聽 It was a defining moment. The jury is 鈥渁 wild card,鈥 says an investigative source. Does showing graphic images like those help the prosecution in its quest for the death penalty? Or does it help the defense and save the defendant鈥檚 life?
