AURORA, CO – Nine months after the Aurora theater shooter was sentenced to life in prison, some victims are returning to the same courtroom in hopes of holding the movie theater accountable for not doing more to prevent his bloody rampage.
In a civil trial starting today, 28 victims’ families will argue that Century Theaters should have had armed guards at the packed opening of the Batman film ‘The Dark Knight Rises’.
They argue the theater should have had alarms that would have sounded when James Holmes slipped into the auditorium and opened fire, killing 12 and injuring 70.
Century says it could not have foreseen the attack.
