‘Nonbinary’ Suspect Pleads Guilty In Colorado Springs Club Q Mass Shooting

OAN:

A suspect from a mass shooting that occurred in 2022 at the LGBTQ bar Club Q in Colorado Springs pleaded guilty on Monday.

Anderson Lee Aldrich, who reportedly identifies as Non-binary, was accused of fatally shooting five people and wounding seventeen at the nightclub on November 19th, 2022. 

Aldrich accepted a plea deal that sentenced him to life in prison without the possibility of parole in exchange for pleading guilty to five counts of first degree murder. He also pleaded guilty to 46 counts of attempted first degree murder. 

The suspect pleaded no contest to “a class five felony bias-motivated crime and class one misdemeanor bias-motivated crime” with associated sentences, according to Judge Michael McHenry. 

In an interview with The Associated Press, Aldrich reportedly admitted to being on a “large plethora of drugs” as well as abusing steroids at that time. He also expressed regret for the attack and claimed that being motivated by hate was “completely off base.”  more
