HOLLIDAYSBURG — A crew from CNN put in an appearance at the Blair County Courthouse this morning as the double-homicide trial of Nicholas Adam Horner entered its third day. A reporter, producer and a videographer were on hand as testimony continued in the prosecution’s case against the former Johnstown man.
While unable to have a camera in the courtroom, as per Pennsylvania law, the CNN crew was taking outside shots of the courtyard and public entrance area of the courthouse.
Their primary interest in the case stems from Horner’s claim that he suffers from PTSD as the result of three tours of duty in the Middle East.
It was the PTSD, his defense attorney maintains, along with drug and alcohol use, that led to his allegedly shooting and killing two men and wounding a woman on April 6, 2009, in Altoona.
