Open and Shut? Aurora Shooter James Holmes’ Notebook Released to the Public

What is being hailed as “the Aurora movie theater shooting’s most critical piece of evidence,” the 35-page notebook now marked People’s Exhibit #341 that accused shooter James Holmes allegedly mailed to his psychiatrist just prior to the July 20, 2012 attack has now been released in full to the public.
The entire manifesto is about a mentally ill person who was slowly emboldened to murder in part due to antidepressant medications and basically lays out a point-by-point slam dunk case (if, say, it had been written by a government who wants to take away people’s right to bear arms) as to why anyone who takes SSRIs should not be allowed to own or get anywhere near a gun (and even more specifically, AR-15s).
After diagnosing himself with 13 different disorders including schizophrenia, Holmes discusses how he was prescribed antidepressants — fast acting benzos and long lasting SSRIs (sertraline primarily) — and it was after that he had feelings of mania, or what he describes as “not good mania”.
Upon taking these drugs, Holmes says his fear and anxiety disappeared and his fear of failure was what drove his determination to improve. Without it, Holmes then wrote, “No fear of consequences.”
