The Daily Mail is reporting that James Holmes, the man suspected of killing 12 people at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo., last week, was allegedly involved with several prostitutes before the attack. Holmes reportedly frequented websites that review prostitutes and wrote three reviews himself. Earlier this week it was reported that Holmes had a profile on sex website AdultFriendFinder.com. It’s also been revealed that Holmes, who was reportedly in the process of dropping out of a Ph.D. program at the University of Colorado in Denver, had been receiving thousands of dollars from federal and school grants, including $21,600 from the National Institutes of Health and a $5,000 stipend from the university. Holmes has been exhibiting odd behavior since being apprehended by police Friday night, when he sat in the Arapahoe County police headquarters staring at the wall with his eyes twitching. Now jail officers have resorted to putting a face guard on the accused gunman because he wouldn’t stop spitting at them.
