Second mask and blood trail of child, who was not found that the public knows of.

How did Holmes make that child disappear? Why did he want to kill a witness with a knife if he was wearing his mask or if he was just going to sit down and wait to be arrested? Why was he not soaked with blood if he carried the bleeding knife victim across the back of the theater? How did he make the body disappear after carrying the dying knife victim back to the exit door area? The victim is unaccounted for inside, or outside.

From 25 Questions No One Has Asked About the Aurora Shooting, by H. Michael Sweeney:

QUESTION 11: Who wore the second gas mask and used the second rifle found behind the theater? We have multiple Police statements which confirm James was found in his car and had with him in his car, a gas mask, and three guns: an AR-15 rifle, a Remington 870 shotgun, and a Glock handgun, with a second handgun and the high-capacity drum canister for the AR-15 discarded inside the theater.

Yet we have photographic evidence, Police radio traffic (18 minutes in), and additional statements to the press which prove a second mask and weapon were found lying on the ground behind the theater. The gun was at the threshold of the EXIT door, and the gas mask was found all the way at the end of the building, some 150 feet away from the EXIT and Jame’s car, where ‘the shooter’ is first reported being seen. The gas mask is part of a whole other series of questions which are the most troubling, of all. So why did James bring but not use two rifles, and two gas masks? And why does that weapon show a standard magazine (the light gray forward appendage). We were led to believe he quit shooting because his drum magazine jammed (which he left inside). Curious, as I would have thought the gun would be sans clip of any kind.

QUESTION 22: Why and how was a child killed behind the theater and not discussed by Police? The press talks about a six year old girl killed in the theater, and we have a 13 year-old girl who tried to save her, but couldn’t. This is clearly not the same child. Warning: This material is graphic and unsettling.

You can hear Police finding the girl on the dispatch audio (at 6:00 in). There is chilling evidence of it all at the rear of the theater with the second gun and gas mask (photo); the shoes and the blood, but there is no chalk outline. The audio implies the victim may be alive at this time (we can hope), but the blood loss is phenomenal for a child, and such a wound would be fatal in moments. A pair of child’s sandals, the color common for little girls lays with the gun right at the Exit, and a trail of blood with splatter patterns suggesting a major wound to arteries… runs between doorway area and almost all the way to the gas mask. A lone, crazed gunman out of ammunition would care nothing about anyone exiting the theater behind him. But the visual evidence tells a different story: the shooter appears to have dropped his gun, grabbed a little girl, who in struggling lost her shoes, and broke free. The rest is not a pretty picture, but it can only be told as deductive conjecture:

Photo analysis suggests she ran down the sidewalk chased by the killer, who was seen and reported by Police as a ‘man in a gas mask.’ They do not mention seeing the girl, perhaps because their view was blocked by vehicles in the parking lot. But the shooter must have pulled his gas mask off to see better near the corner of the building, and dropped it, probably to make easier recapture of the girl. He could not kill her there, as it would raise questions, so once corralled, he carried her back toward the doorway where Police found her near the exit door by James’ car. We have audio of that find in Police Dispatch recordings. Recall the gun was left behind, testimony it was indeed out of ammunition. Still struggling with the girl as he went, he had to drop the gas mask along the way to retrieve a knife, which he used. You can see the blood splatters which give testimony. It is these which we must analyze…

I am not a forensics specialist in blood splatters, but I have done photo analysis of varying technical natures in both the military and in civilian employ. Yet the splatters do quite easily suggest some things which seem rather obvious to me: While we can hope it merely a serious wound in the foot area, or that blood streamed down her leg to her feet, my take is that he cut her throat and let her hang in his arms before him as he went, with her head down. At every pace, but without any differences suggesting left-right foot pattern, are the tell-tale blood splatters of two spurts of blood giving testimony to her last remaining terror-filled heart beats.

Each splatter appears almost equal to a spilled top half of a cup of coffee in volume, and there are 18 groupings ending in some larger pools — estimated equal to about 4 pints of blood. An adult only has 10-12 pints max and usually dies if they loose 3-4 pints. These groupings appear as if interrupted in distance by steps of the killer, which would have caused the body to swing toward the next splatter location. They are so well defined that it appears her head was rather close to the ground. The blood spurts toward the door and away from the gas mask, so her body was facing the door and being carried in that direction as she died. They don’t quite make it all the way back to the door before they diminish, suggesting loss of blood pressure. Even if we prefer to think her actually running with a foot wound or blood trailing down her legs, she was starting to black out. Tragic and disgusting, either way.

Also, some Web posts include images of the dropped gas mask where the person posting claims it to show a discarded knife. I do not find them clearly revealing of that fact (blurry), but only suggestive of it. But to chase, kill, and return a body to a doorway is hallmark of a professional who did not want a witness. Why would James even have cared, if all he was going to do was sit and wait for capture? And given his state of stupor and explanation for calmness, how could he even run in the first place?

On the other hand, if James were NOT the shooter, and merely a patsy, anyone exiting the rear of the theater could not be allowed to give testimony to what they would see: a person who was NOT James exiting via a vehicle which was NOT James’ car, and possibly additional helpers such as a driver or clean up man. THAT is why it was important that someone insure no one used the exits in theaters 8 and 10, and why a little girl had to die. Yet thus far, there is no mention of such a little girl beyond the first discovery by an officer. Why? Why no second girl listed in the injured and dead, not even a Jand Doe? How is it that no parent has come forward to ask, unless the answer be that the parent is among the dead? Was there blood on James’ clothing, and if not, why not?

QUESTION 23: Why did the Police Chief repeatedly dodge questions about security cameras capturing the event, and what do they show? Three times he ignored the question. In point of fact several cameras had a view of the rear of the theater (see photos) and should be able to concretely show the true events. Why no acknowledgement of their existence, much less their content?
