By Keith Coffman DENVER (Reuters) - Attorneys for accused Colorado movie theater gunman James Holmes questioned an FBI forensic examiner in court on Friday as they sought to have expert crime scene reconstruction testimony excluded from the upcoming trial. Holmes has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, and prosecutors said they will seek the death penalty if he is convicted. The hearing in Arapahoe County District Court on Friday centers on proposed testimony by crime scene experts who prosecutors intend to call at trial. Defense lawyers object to crime scene reconstruction testimony through expert witnesses, on the grounds that it is unreliable, and on Friday cross-examined FBI forensic examiner Brett Mills over his findings.
