To -- -- suspect in Thursday night's movie theater massacre made his first court appearance -- fittingly bizarre fashion.

Correspondent Adam Housley has our update from Aurora Colorado.

With his hair dyed a reddish orange we've got our first look at suspect James Holmes in court.

Innocence.

And 350 shells for a twelve gauge shotgun.

Authorities also tell us inside an apartment they found it that -- poster and a mask associated with this series and comic book series as well.

We've also heard from a gun range owner here in the Denver area over the weekend who says that.

But James Holmes never showed up to complete the application process and finally -- we are also being told now that the first funerals are being planned for Friday and over the weekend.

Jenna -- Adam Housley live in Colorado thank you.
