"Boulder King Soopers shooting suspect claims insanity in plea"

The suspect in the Boulder King Soopers shooting, Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa, pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity after a detective testified that he targeted and pursued each of the 10 victims he killed during the attack. The preliminary hearing concluded with enough evidence for the case to proceed, and Alissa now faces charges including first-degree murder and attempted murder. The judge dismissed four counts related to illegally large ammunition magazines but set Alissa's bail at $100 million. The detective described how Alissa hunted down and killed his victims, with some survivors and families of the victims present in court. The case will now evaluate Alissa's mental state at the time of the crime, and a jury trial is tentatively scheduled for mid-August.
