Accused Aurora, Colo., theater shooter James Holmes appeared in court today where a judge set a preliminary hearing for January 7 that is expected to last several days.

Hundreds of people including witnesses, victims and families are expected to attend.

Prosecutors say part of the evidence presented at the preliminary hearing will include recordings of calls to 911 and approximately 30 hours of video from inside the Century 16 multiplex.

Holmes was in court for Wednesday’s hearing, his brown hair slightly grown out from his last appearance and now wearing a full beard. He did not speak and sat quietly at the defense table in a maroon jumpsuit and shackles.

Both sides told judge William Sylvester that they are ready to proceed on January 7.
