Batman killer ‘played loud music’ to lure police into booby-trapped home

Kaitlyn Fonzi, a graduate student at University Hospital, who lives in the
apartment below, said she heard loud music coming from Holmes’s apartment.
She went upstairs and put her hand on the door handle and noticed that it
was unlocked, but had no idea of Holmes was present or not was decided not
to confront him.

Ms called police, who told her they were busy the shooting and did not have
time to respond to a noise disturbance. She said she was shaken to learn
later that the apartment was booby trapped.

“I’m concerned if I had opened the door, I would have set it off,”
she said.

Dan Oates, Aurora’s chief of police, said that authorities had determined that
the apartment was too dangerous for officers to enter and would send a robot
in on Saturday to detonate the explosives.

With Holmes in jail and awaiting an initial court appearance on Monday
morning, police have declined to reveal what he has told investigators and
would not discuss possible motives for Thursday night’s shooting rampage.

Late on Friday night, police went door to door with a list of those who died
in the shooting, notifying families who had held out hope that their loved
ones had been spared.

Among the victims was 23-year-old Micayla Medek, disclosed Anita Busch, the
cousin of her father.

Knowing her fate after waiting without word brought them some peace, she said,
adding: “I hope this evil act, that this evil man doesn’t shake
people’s faith in God.”
