Michael:
I do have a few questions that I don’t think were addressed… and people have been talking about on various forums.
Why was a criminal conviction important?
Isn’t it just the same as spending his life in a mental institution?
To me these kinds shootings  pretty much have to be insane to do what Alissa did. For that matter all mass shooters of this type?
What will happen to Alissa now?
Will he be sent to a secret secure lo location same as James Holmes?
ANSWERS
FROM BOULDER DA

“With this guilty verdict and sentence, justice was done for the victims, their loved ones, and this community. The judge imposed a sentence of ten consecutive life terms, plus an additional 1,334 years. That sentence reflects the devastation that this defendant inflicted upon our community, after two months of planning and preparation.

A mass shooting is the ultimate act of cowardice and terror. This day was long in coming; I am very grateful that this defendant is being held fully accountable. It has been an honor to work on behalf of the victims and this community, alongside a truly outstanding team.

The defendant has been transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections.
