Colorado club shooting suspect makes 1st court appearance, slumped over and injured

The alleged shooter facing possible hate crime charges in the fatal shooting of five people at a Colorado Springs gay nightclub was ordered held without bail in an initial court appearance Wednesday.

Defense attorneys said late Tuesday that the suspect is nonbinary and in court filings referred to the suspect as "Mx. Aldrich." The attorneys' footnotes assert that Aldrich is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns. The suspect's father is a mixed martial arts fighter and pornography performer with an extensive criminal history, including convictions for battery against the alleged shooter's mother, Laura Voepel, both before and after the suspect was born, state and federal court records show. A 2002 misdemeanor battery conviction in California resulted in a protective order that initially barred the father, Aaron F.

Local and federal authorities have declined to answer questions about why hate crime charges were being considered. District Attorney Michael Allen noted that the murder charges would carry the harshest penalty - life in prison - whereas bias crimes are eligible for probation. He also said it was important to show the community that bias motivated crimes are not tolerated.

ABC & CNN “misgendering” them needs to be addressed. Right?

That man deserves medical attention. Just like every other person that commits a crime is afforded.

He should be thankful

mrorlj55 of course he's a little hung out

Poor baby.

People like him should be made an example of no more life in prison three months and you're done bottom line.

Poor diddums 🤬
