The jury trial to determine if the defendant accused of shooting and killing 10 people at a King Soopers store in Boulder in 2021 was insane at the time of the shooting has started. The defendant, who pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, faces multiple charges including first-degree murder. Witness testimony from law enforcement officers and survivors of the shooting was heard on the second day of the trial, providing harrowing details of the events that unfolded that day. The witnesses described hearing gunshots, chaos, and confusion as the shooter entered the store and began firing at people. Surveillance footage and cell phone records were presented as evidence, showing the defendant’s movements leading up to the shooting. The trial will resume on Monday, with more witnesses expected to testify. The impact of the shooting on survivors was also highlighted, with many experiencing anxiety, depression, and the need for therapy.
