Jury Deliberates in Colorado Supermarket Shooting Trial
Ahmad Alissa's sanity is the central issue as jurors decide if he knew right from wrong during the 2021 Boulder massacre.
- Ahmad Alissa, diagnosed with schizophrenia, faces 93 charges, including first-degree murder, for the 2021 King Soopers shooting.
- The defense argues Alissa was legally insane, driven by psychotic delusions and hearing 'killing voices' at the time of the attack.
- Prosecutors contend Alissa was sane, planning the attack meticulously and demonstrating awareness of his actions' wrongfulness.
- Jurors have heard emotional testimonies from survivors and graphic evidence of the shooting, which killed 10 people.
- State psychologists testified that, despite Alissa's mental illness, he was capable of distinguishing right from wrong during the shooting.
