DENVER –  Thousands of emails released by the University of Colorado shed new light into the man suspected of killing 12 and wounding 58 during a midnight movie showing and the university's response to the July 22 massacre. Shock, disgust and fear spread across the campus of the Colorado university -- the man who shot up a midnight movie was identified as James Holmes, and faculty members suspected they knew him. As professors and others questioned what to do and feared for their safety, some shared the tidbits they knew about Holmes via email. He briefly had a girlfriend, who was in India at the time of the attack. He had a few friends, though none in the neuroscience program he'd just left. Many of the emails are partially or completely blacked out, the university says to avoid violating privacy laws.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
