New mug shot of alleged Colorado shooterPosted: 10:00 AM ET
The Arapahoe County Sheriff released a new mug shot of James Holmes, the alleged shooter in the Colorado movie theater massacre. Holmes is facing 10 new charges for the Colorado movie theater shooting that left 12 people dead and 58 wounded. It is unclear what the new charges include. Holmes was facing 142 counts, including 24 counts of first-degree murder, and now he is facing 152 charges total. The charges were added during a hearing Thursday, where Holmes attended with cropped dark hair and a stubbly beard. Prosecutors also announced at the hearing that they would not fight for the admissibility of the notebook Holmes allegdly sent to his psychiatrist, Dr. Lynn Fenton, hours before the shooting. Holmes’ public defender, Tamara Brady, has argued that the notebook should not be used at trial, because it is confidential communication between a patient and doctor. Prosecutors say they maintain the belief that the notebook is not confidential, but will drop the issue out of fear it will delay the trial. Posted by: In Session's Alice Feigel
September 17, 2012 1970s murder could be retriedPosted: 03:10 PM ET
Jeffrey MacDonald, the Green Beret doctor, convicted of killing his wife and two daughters in the 1970s, could get a new trial. A federal judge began hearing testimony Monday morning. MacDonald says a group of hippies broke into his home in 1970 and killed his wife and two daughters. He also says they chanted “kill the pigs” and “acid’s groovy” before they stabbed him in the lung. MacDonald and his attorneys will attempt to use DNA testing to show that hair samples under one of the victim’s fingernails did not come from him or a member of his family, but from one of the killers. MacDonald was convicted in 1979 and is currently serving three life sentences for the murders. Watch the video above to see In Session’s Jean Casarez and Christi Paul talk about MacDonald’s chances of getting a new trial.

September 12, 2012 Attorney: Casey Anthony request 'much ado about nothing'Posted: 01:32 PM ET
Casey Anthony's attorneys have requested to ban evidence of her murder trial in her upcoming defamation case against Zenaida Gonzalez. Gonzalez's attorney, Matt Morgan told In Session's Vinnie Politan that Anthony's request is 'much ado about nothing.' "To think or believe that a resident of Orange County would not be aware of what was going on in the criminal trial is just not reasonable," said Morgan. Morgan also ensured Politan that "no question about it...[Anthony] will be there," and might even have to testify for the first time. Gonzalez is suing Anthony for defamation and claims she was harassed and threatened after Anthony came up with a fictitious nanny named Zenaida Gonzalez-Fernandez, also known as "Zanny the Nanny." Anthony accused the fictitious nanny of kidnapping her daughter, Caylee. Posted by: In Session's Alice Feigel
