Planned Parenthood shooting suspect has courtroom outburst: 'I'm a warrior for the babies'

The man accused of shooting three people to death and wounding nine others at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado last month shouted, "I'm guilty, there's no trial. I'm a warrior for the babies," during a courtroom outburst on Wednesday.

Robert Lewis Dear, 57, appeared for an El Paso County court hearing to face 179 counts of various criminal charges stemming from the bloody five-hour siege on Nov. 27, in which authorities said he opened fire with a rifle in front of the clinic, then stormed inside.
