S.O.S. My friend is a "Holmies"

My friend has officially come out as a "Holmies." While she does not condone what he has done, she likes him nonetheless.She thinks he's cute and "feels sorry for him." While it is slightly creepy, she's really not hurting anyone.I think that there's some sort of mental block between her feelings for James Eagan Holmes and what he did.Like she can't get the connection between the two.My poor delusional friend.I'll just be as supportive as I can.
