apartment. >> we spoke last week, moved closer. we're 90 feet or so from the front of the complex. go across the street, this is the complex where everything has been focused since early, early yesterday morning. if you look through the window, you'll see one of the investigators inside. there are atf agents, f.b.i. agents, and the aurora police department. they put up black plastic over the windows. you can see where they knocked the windows out throughout the day. that's part of the way they had a chance to look inside assess the situation. we know about the explosions. you can see they have four windows -- five that they were dealing with. they knocked four out. the only one they didn't go in was the bathroom. we were told by inspectors that inside there were a plethora of devices, all sorts of wires. it was really a mess inside. very intricate mess. however, while the set-up was intricate, the actual bombs were amateur. still enough to hurt somebody, potentially kill someone, especially the person that would have opened that front door. once that door was oh, it was more set up to burn.

when we were here earlier, we heard three different explosions. two small one, like a fireworks way in the distance. a third one that was loud. it was a loud pop. that was the main one. we'll explain what happened after that pop. first listen to it right now. (horn blowing). >> that was the warning signal we would hear, given a ten o 12 second warning between those blasts and the actual explosion. it gave people a chance to get behind cars as the explosion was ready to take place. should be coming up here momentarily. take a listen (explosion). >> what that was was a water bomb. layman's terms, a water bomb. they found a circuit board in the kitchen that connected all those home made grenades grenadd would eventually set off the fuel inside those bottles and some of the other stuff that was

around in the room. the way to take out by technicians, to take it out and start cleaning up was take out the circuit board which was in the kitchen. the water bomb did that. then that allowed them to get inside and meticulously go to each device, take a sample, bring it down. if you come back live, you can see the set-up here what, they've done with the crime lab that they have, makeshift crime lab with the aurora police department, f.b.i. and atf. they took a sample of every single thing the suspect left in there. that's going in the national laboratory. once that was completed, then they took all the stuff out. the powders meant to cause a fire, the incendiary devices in the bottle, makeshift hand grenades, all that was put this a dump truck, taken east of denver to the dump, basically, and it was set afire and burned up. that allowed inspectors to go back inside. they put up the black plastic over the windows as they continue the process of going through that apartment complex. the two big things they were trying to accomplish today was to secure the site without

causing any injuries so they could get in there and take out evidence. important evidence they say shows that this suspect planned this months and months in advance and john, both of those things they were trying to do today came out very successful. no injuries and they have a ton of evidence. back to you. >> couple of items of good news in this tragedy there. adam housley outside the apartment, thank you. the suspect, james holmes, is expected to make his first court appearance this monday. he will likely face at least 71 charges. one for each of the victims killed or hurt. however, he could be looking at even more charges than that, including some related to the rigging of his apartment with trip wires and explosives. police still working on determining the motive. here is aura police chief dan oates earlier today. >> with regard to mr. holmes, a lot of questions about motive. we're not going to talk about motive but i will reassure you that again, with the assistance of our friends in the f.b.i., the f.b.i. behavioral analysis

(horn blowing).

>> those were the three warninge signals we got telling us about ten seconds away would be an explosion prior to that we heard fire in the hole yelled three times. then came the boom. take a listen. (explosion) that was basically a water bomb. it was placed inside to explode and shoot water out so it wouldn't add fuel to the fire. that water would take out an area in the kitchen that wase said to be a circuit board type set-up that wasai attached to those 30 makeshift hand grenades and intertwined with the bottles filled with accelerants. authorities say they believe the point was, as whoever entered t the apartment from the front door would have been killed and then a fire would have been started and the entire placeti would have gone up in seconds as there was stuf everywhere. intricate set-up burks say the explosive devices themselves were amateur. we can show you some of the investigative work that was going o. the tent moved.

this was earlier. you can seent atf agents along with f.b.i. agents took out parts of each device, a little to go to the national laboratork as part of their investigation. there will bevi prosecution in b regards to employees on a federal level. they took apr little bit of each out and that will be taken away. then they took each device out individually after the threat was taken out and put them piano a dumpvi truck and drove that dp truck out to the eastern part of town to a dump near the airport actually, and then disposed of the items there. either a burning them or putting small explosive devices to setng them off. that's taking place as we speak. we come back here live. people are going to bees allowed in. if we come to the t t right, lot this apartment complex next door. 1678 paris street, they'll be allowed back in here. buses bringing people back in, are expected in the next half hour. so everybody in theex surroundig apartment complexes will be allowed back in. you see some of the people walking in for the first time since this all started. veryle, very early yesterday

revealing holmes spent time as a summer camp counselor workingme with underprivileged kids. he was described as quiet, former teammates on his high school soccer team calling him s kind of a lower than. he was also very smart, earning a degree in neuroscience in 2010. he continued his education as as graduate student at the university of colorado-denver, untilat dropping out last month. and until this point, holmes had never had any trouble withy police. not even so much as a parking ticket. holmes now faces a long, long list of charges, at least 71 counts, one for each person killed or wounded in the deadly rampage. he's due in court for the first time on monday. learning his defense team will bear allowed into the theater ft their own research beginning on tuesday. joining us now to talk about th legal case going forward, judge jeanine pirro, host of "justice, with judge jeanine. he has a defense team now. we understand that some of the

top public defenders in this area are going to be representing him.e >> you know what? that makes sense. when you have a public defender, you have someone who knows the. system. he knows the law. he knows the judge. he knows the prosecutors. how the courts work. and i think it's a smart move, although we don't know what's happen in the future. but he will be represented by the public defender.s >> but there is so much evidence and so many witnesses. i don't see anything but a conviction coming out of this case. >> well, there are severalwi hurdles before you get to that point. number one, is he competent to stand trial? there will be an argument that he c is not competent enough to understand the nature of the charges or assist in his defense. and then number two, there is as rumor going around and i'm sureh a lot of people think it, that he will proffer an insanity defense. as we both know, insanity doesn't work that well for most defendants in 1 or 2% of theen cases. most people are saying now that the fact that he just kind of dropped out when he was, as you just reported, a smart guy, kind

of a good kid, might lead some people to think he had to be insane. i happen to believe in evil. he's got no history of a mental hospitalization or medications or any of that stuff. but at the same time, if the a facts are against you, go with insanity and there are those who think you have to be crazy to do this. >> all of the preplanning, doesn't that suggest a very clinical and devious mind? >> absolutely. the premeditation, theal calculation, determination, the months of ordering the ammunition and all the ballistiu leggings. you can get a lot of ammunition. but to get a lot of the armor that he got indicates he he wand to protect himself, the throat protection, that tells me this guy is thinking like an intelligent individual. but the legal insanity is very different and i would venture to guess that's the only defense they can use here.te >> 71 counts filed against him. obviously they're going to be at

least 12 counts of murder. there might be other deaths in the days to company. >> you're right. and there are a lot of people now, or a few, i believe, in critical condition. when youie say 71, you're not talking about crime scene number 2, which is the paris street apartment. when i was at thats press conference this afternoon, i asked whether or not, given the role of the feds, the f.b.i., the atf and all of the other agencies, might there be a federal prosecution here for something like domestic terrorism? they indicated it wouldte probae will he be local charges.ge that the feds would come in to i assist. it's more than 71.10 does it matter if they do seek death? then that could be it. >> the indications are, it's still early on, but the prosecutor has indicated he doesn't at this point, see a reason not to go for the death t penalty. >> right. the d.a. now, i understand is a woman, she, and she has sought death, i believe six times in four cases.a. she's not shy about seeking death. but you know, you're right.

it is premature, but people want to know what's going to happen. they want to know whether there is going to be justice here.no as you go through the community as you have today, you know the people aree still in shock. there is going to come a point in time when they're going to really want to know what this system is going to do to the guy who brought hell upon the people of aurora. >> it is so sad all the way around. your hearts to to go out to hise parents, his family. they apparently had no indication that something like this was going on. >> let's hope that that's the case. it's veroy sad for everyone involved. this ise just a nightmare. it's a horror. >> it sure is. judge jeanine, thank you. you can catch "justice" with judgeyo jeanine from aurora immediately following huckabee, which airs this evening on the fox news channel. we will a continue our coveragev the movie massacre. but first, let's check in with rick folbaum for some other headlines. >> iowa, investigators aret saying that they have evidence now that leads them to believe two cousins who vanished last
