A CO judge on Tuesday accepted a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity from the suspect in the deadly Colorado movie theater shooting, setting the stage for a lengthy mental evaluation. James Holmes is accused of opening fire in a packed Denver-area movie theater last summer, killing 12 people and injuring 70. He is charged with multiple counts of murder and attempted murder, and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. The July 20 massacre was one of several that jolted the debate over gun violence in the United States, and it prompted Colorado to adopt significant statewide gun controls this year. The mental evaluation could take months. cbsnews/8301-504083_162-57587585-504083/james-holmes-update-judge-accepts-insanity-plea-in-colo-theater-shooting-case/
