legal analysts believe holmes attorney will ensue a defense. mary hanson is hoping that will be allowed. the pregnant mother was paralyzed and lost her baby over the weekend. >> it was very important to come today to see him, and there was a lot of anger. >> holmes is scheduled to be back in court august 9. the reason it is two counts of murder for each victim killed. one of them sets the stage to seek the death penalty. reporting in centennial, colorado, edward lawrence. >> the judge placed a gag order on the lawyers handling the case. joining us now is former prince georges county states attorney, glenn ivy. thanks for coming in today. >> thanks for having me. >> let's talk about what happened today. james holmes charged with 142 counts of murder. let's talk about those charges a bit.

>> 24 counts for murder. they were charged on two legal theories and then there were attempted murder charges and charges for explosives as well. >> is this unprecedented? have you done anything like this in your history with prince georges county where you issued two counts of murder for per one charge? >> that's pretty regular, actually. what is pretty unusual is the number of counts. because he shot at and killed so many people. 142 counts is very large for this type of violent crime. >> one of the things that they sited in colorado is what they called deprayed or extreme indifference. what does that mean? you just didn't even care about who you were shooting so much that we will charge you for that as well? >> yes. i mean, two approaches to murder charges typically. one is deliberate, malice. planned out in advance for a particular person you wanted to kill. this other theory is that he might not have planned to kill those particular 12 people, but he acted in such a reckless way

that he should have known he could kill people and he should be held accountable for that. >> going forward, the real fight for the prosecutors is not necessarily whether james holmes is actually guilty of these crimes. it sounds like what you said to me off camera is whether he understood what he was doing when he has been accused of carrying out these crimes. >> that's right. this is clearly heading toward a defense, i think of insanity. and the argument, i think, by the prosecutors has to be that no, he knew what he was doing. he bought the rounds of ammunition in advance. he booby trapped his apartment and the like. on the other hand, the defense, just his appearance in court and the way he behaved seems to indicate he had no health issues. he was seeing a doctor already. what the psychiatrist comes out with after this week, after he has a chance to inspect him, i think will be critical.

>> glenn, former state's attorney for prince georges county here to weigh in. thanks so much. >> thank you. >> derek and anita. >> four women hit by stray bullets in the district's u street corridor. today, a city councilwoman says if the police department can't come up with more officers, private businesses should hire offduty cops do the job. >> people getting shot, even killed by random bullets on u street is not new? >> that's right. we have a case that goes back some six years and the gunman is still out there. they haven't solved that case. just like they are looking for the person who fired the shots this past weekend that hit two innocent women. >> a major tourist and entertainment attraction. early saturday morning, two women suffered nonlife threatening injuries when they were shot near 12th and u. innocent victims hit by somebody's stray bullets. >> you have to be concerned, not only for the people this happened to, but for the

reputation of u street. >> contacted one of the women. she is declined to do an interview. assigned to the white house. she is going to be okay. that second woman, according to a published online report looks for the washington post. a week ago saturday, at 11th and u, two groups of men were arguing, gun shots erupted and two more women were hit. both of them in the legs. they'll recover, say police. three men were arrested after a gun was thrown from a car. >> we require more police officers than i think sometimes we get from mpd. so all over the city, areas like this are using the cost reinverseable program. >> jim graham says police want to sign more officers to u streets, then private businesses should hire their own offduty police. there is city money that will pay for half the costs of bars and nightclubs. >> our business contributes lots of taxes to the district.

>> the owner can't afford offduty police officers. she can't get the same subs they offer at bars and restaurants. >> we hire anywhere from 10 to 15 employees. somebody is probably going to go. >> six years ago, february 2006, damon word was hit by a stray bullet and killed. he was stepping out of a nightclub. he was hit by a bullet that came from a group of people that had been arguing over a parking space. >> my son was an innocent bystander. he did nothing. he was not a part of it at all and that could be anybody. >> despite a $50,000 reward, d.c. police today confirmed they have yet to make an arrest in the slain of damon ward and looking for the person or persons responsible for the shootings this past weekend. >> so senseless, thank you, bruce. was it medical marijuana, a stash, or a full scale pot farm right in the shadow of a local high school protected by a

online court records show no criminal history in maryland. neighbors say there's been no sign ever of drug dealing or gun danger. >> whatever he has going, it didn't disturb anything outside his little world, 14 cars and the s.w.a.t. team and running through backyards is ridiculous to me. >> 46 plants and all the plants were between 5 and 6 feet tall. large amount of marijuana. too much for a single consumption by one individual. people have defended marijuana grow operations with violence. they yield a lot of profit. >> police have charged dominik with the intent to distribute. but they admit they don't have any direct evidence that he was actually selling the stuff. in maryland, scott broom, 9news now. >> sounds like a lot of questions are out there. dominik is free on $25,000 in bond. ocean city police are looking for a man wanted of a series of acemented sexual assaults. they reportedly poor lit

third week of june. >> he has federal crop insurance, but at best, he'll break even. so he won't hire the six extra workers he usually gets at harvest that they won't be the only ones paying the price. >> corn prices are fed all the way to the supermarket. >> the drought shouldn't cause historic levels of food inflation, but shoppers will see an increase this year. >> we expect to see poultry prices go up. beef prices looking at at 4.5%. pork prices, we are looking at 2 to 3%. >> in 2013, higher prices are expected to add another $3 to $4 to a $100 grocery bill. that's two years impact from what tommy is seeing today. >> should be beans in this area. you don't see anything. nothing but dry dirt. >> if there's no rain in two weeks, his beans will be worthless. with the next crop, one year

away. >> it's in your blood, you can't wait to do it, but it hurts right now. it hurts. >> if tommy had to guess, he would estimate an 80% crop loss. in fact, his only certainty is if 6300 acres, these are the only 13-acres that are green. he irrigates them for corn maze in the fall. as of right now, they are the only guaranteed crop that he'll have. emily schmidt, maryland. we can also expect to pay more for eggs, cheese, and milk. 1300 counties across 31 states as disaster areas this year. >> topper, tell us more about when we'll get some rain. >> that would be something nice to know if you're a fan. i have a patch of it in front of my house. >> all we are going to get is isolated storms. a severe drought, south and east of us. moderate drought through town

and up towards gaithersburg and south. but as i advance the map, you'll see what will be a severe drought just now entering calvert county, maybe st. mary's county, and certainly dell morva has been the hardest hit. you have seen a lot of brown field. well, relief only spotty relief, that's it. here's live doppler 9,000. we'll zoom into a couple of storms. these storms we have been watching a while in southern maryland. they weakened a little bit. still some pretty good rain. but that's about it. they are drifting off to the east, very, very slowly. you might get beneficial rains. now off to the west and north of town. these are stronger, especially in fauquier county. just north of warrenton, around the plain states. this just popped up northwest of ashburn. where are these going to go in the next hour? they will drift very, very slowly back to the north and back to the west.

actually toward the valley. but sometimes storms will drift off to the north and west in the middle of summer. there's not much current. so maybe a light shower in upperville. maybe a significant shower south of 66 down toward flint hill. that is about it. again, just kind of scattered relief. how much lightning do these storms have? not a bunch. more storms out in the mountains. they have been getting pounded. but these storms around warrenton and leesburg, noted much in terms of lightning. if you hear thunder, get inside. our live weather cam brought to you by michael and son, 87. that's about average. dew point 66. can't complain about that. winds southeasterly at 10. okay currently. we're looking at 83 in bethesda. 87 in vienna. pretty nice for late july. 87 in alexandria. 88 in college park. 86 in bowie. all right, so we're looking at, it's going to heat up a little

bit with storms. isolated thunderstorm tonight. warm again tomorrow with some storms on tuesday. better chance of storms on wednesday and some of those will be on the hefty side. for tonight, isolated thunderstorm possible. partly cloudy and mild. mid 60s in the suburbs. a little muggy downtown. if you're inside the beltway, talking 72, 73, maybe 74 in arlington. but 68 in rockville isn't bad. 67 in gaithersburg and 68 in reston and fairfax. that's pretty good. tomorrow morning, partly cloudy and warm. 70s and 80s. a dry morning commute. by afternoon, partly sunny and warm. high temperatures in the upper 80s with light winds. the next three days. our 9 weather alert codes, green, yellow, yellow. big storms possible on wednesday, 89. hot on thursday with big storms possible again. temperatures in the mid 90s. next seven days, it stays hotted for a little while. nothing record setting, but mid

but the choice you face, it couldn't be bigger. ♪ i'm barack obama and i approve this message. in tonight's consumer alert, hyundai is recalling 200,000 of its 2007 through 2009 santa fe suv's. front passenger air bag won't deploy in the event of a crash. the car maker is recalling also more than suv's because the air bags inflate without warning. and 200 tribute suv's.
