DENVER (KDVR) — The jury has reached a verdict in the King Soopers shooting trial, which will be read in court at 1:25 p.m. Jurors are deciding if Ahmad Alissa should be convicted of murder for fatally shooting 10 people at the Boulder supermarket in 2021 or be found not guilty by reason of insanity.
KDVR.com will stream a live feed of the verdict being read from the courtroom in the player above. FOX31 will have live coverage on TV.
Alissa is charged with 10 counts of first-degree murder, 38 counts of first-degree attempted murder, one count of assault in the first degree and six counts of possessing a large-capacity magazine.
In closing arguments, prosecutors said Alissa was legally sane and knew the difference between right and wrong. They pointed out that he used steel-piercing bullets and an optic sight to help him kill as many people as possible. But defense lawyer Kathryn Herold underscored that Alissa told state psychologists he heard voices that were yelling in his head. Alissa told them that he thought the voices might stop if he committed a mass shooting.
