>>> now to colorado and the news that has come out of the aftermath of the massacre in that movie theater over a week ago now. today, the funerals continued for the victims there as we learn new details about the suspect. his lawyers revealing, james holmes was seeing a psychiatrist, even as police say he was plotting to commit mass murder . our report tonight from nbc's mike taibbi .
>> reporter: one after the other, the victims shot dead for the simple reason that they chose to see a movie have been laid to rest. rebecca , a local mother of two in her own home town .

>> reporter: matt mcquinn buried in ohio. john layer more in illinois.
>> my heart is breaking and i will miss him.

>> reporter: for the 58 victims who were shot but survived, including steven barton now back home in connecticut, these are days spent healing.
>> i was holding on to my neck to staunch the bleeding.
>> reporter: and reflecting on what brought them to this theater at just the wrong time. a theater whose owners are now offering to pay funeral expenses for those killed. for barton and boyhood pals, it was a bicycle trip to discover america . 3,000 miles so far east to west, stopping on day 44 for just one day in aurora. movie tickets for themselves and the local pal and then madness.
