Four days after the shooting at a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado that killed 12 people and wounded 58 more, little is known about the motives of James Holmes, the 24-year-old suspect.

Holmes, a former graduate student in neuroscience at the University of Colorado, is set to appear in court for the first time today.
