17 others were injured in the mass shooting.
Anderson Lee Aldrich, the Club Q Colorado Springs shooting suspect, was charged with 305 criminal counts including hate crimes and murder.The person charged with fatally shooting five people and wounding 17 others at a gay nightclub in Colorado Springs last year was at the venue for more than an hour earlier that night before returning to carry out the mass shooting, according to information disclosed Friday during a procedural court hearing.
Aldrich, who is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns, is charged with hate crimes as well as murder and attempted murder. Someone who is nonbinary can be charged with a hate crime for targeting peers, because hate crime laws are focused on the victims, not the perpetrator. However, prosecutors must prove what motivated a defendant, a higher standard than what is usually required in court.
Archambault did not return a call seeking more details. His office has a policy of not speaking with reporters.
