COSTELLO: Startling details out of Colorado. Prosecutors now say James Holmes, who is accused of killing 12 people at a midnight movie, had made threats a month earlier at the University of Colorado. Holmes appeared in court, his hair still died red. His lawyers argued over access to his University of Colorado records. Jim Spellman is live on the phone from Denver. Tell us more, Jim.</s>JIM SPELLMAN, CNN CORRESPONDENT (via telephone): Yes, Carol, the prosecutors in this case are looking for all the information they can get from the university about James Holmes, especially in this period before the shooting, the month of June. Yesterday, we know why. Prosecutors said in that month alone, he failed his oral exam, made unspecified threats that were reported to campus police, and then he dropped out. Meanwhile, we know he was buying large amounts of ammunition and guns and we know he was seeing a psychiatrist on campus at that point. Now the defense in turn wants to keep all of this information from the university out of prosecutors' hands. That's what this hearing has been all about. The judge did not rule yet. We'll have to wait and see what he decides. But it really raises an important issue, which is: did the university know something about James Holmes was dangerous leading up to the attack, and possibly could something have been done to stop it, Carol.</s>COSTELLO: From what I understand, his alleged threats were turned over to campus police. But do we know if the campus police turned anything over to the Aurora police?</s>SPELLMAN: We don't. And that's a really key question here. But there's a real strict gag order, and almost all of the important documents in this case has been sealed. So, that's in a way why this hearing was so important yesterday because we got this information directly from the prosecutors and we've been having to piece things together through the series of hearings because we just can't get this information.</s>COSTELLO: Jim Spellman, reporting live for us from Colorado this morning. In Florida, a new storm bears down as old memories bubble to the surface. Twenty years ago today, hurricane Andrew struck. Its impact still felt every day.
