Corbin Dates AKA Corbin Kent, aspiring actor and model, was seated towards the front of the theater (third row I believe), when he saw a man with a goatee take a phone call towards the exit. The same exit in which a gunman would enter just minutes later and cause a massacre. Corbin's witness testimony on day one states that he saw the man standing at the (ajar) exit door making gestures, as if to beckon someone over to him. There is no mention of bright red or orange hair whatsoever until that becomes a problem later on, obviously. Here is Corbin's reaction to seeing James Holmes for the first time in court: Corbin's Reaction
So he clearly doesn't recognize James Holmes. Who was the man with the goatee? If only the reporter asked him if James was the man he saw exiting the theater. Simple, right? Guess not. Anyway, we can see from these interviews done in the few days after the shooting that Corbin looks uninjured and fine. Well, according to police testimony at the preliminary hearing in January 2013, Corbin Dates was shot in the arm. !!! Uh, okay then....
Notice that "red hair" comment. Also at the preliminary hearing, Sergeant Fyles testified not only to the gunshot wound to Corbin's arm but also that Corbin actually DID see red hair sticking out of the man's beanie. Well, whattya know? Pretty significant detail to just forget about in the beginning, huh? I just can't anymore with these people. Was it "Lie for us and we'll add you to the victims list so you can be compensated appropriately"?
