The psychiatrists could have done more to stop the Aurora theater murderer.

Dr. Lynne Fenton did contact the University of Colorado Behavioral Evaluation and Threat Assessment team, but it "never came together."
"It takes more than just statements,” said one source, explaining that Holmes would have had to tell Fenton “something specific" before she would have to report it to law enforcement.

“He would have to tell her he had taken steps to make it happen,” said another source....

One source [said] that the team may not have been convened because while Fenton had “serious concerns, there may not have been an immediate threat.”
Maybe these standards and procedures need to be changed.
