James Holmes, a 24-year-old former?neuroscience?graduate student at the university's?Denver campus, is accused of opening fire during a midnight screening of the movie "The Dark Knight Rises," killing 12 people and wounding 58.

The school released roughly 3,800 e-mails on Wednesday pertaining to Holmes following an open records request by several media organizations. One of those e-mails, from a professor of computational bioscience, revealed that Holmes had briefly dated a fellow graduate student.

"He was a grad student here and, it turns out, had a brief romantic relationship with one of the grad students in my program last fall," the professor,?Larry Hunter, wrote in a July 20 e-mail. "She, fortunately, it turns out is in?India?right now. She knows, and is pretty freaked out."
