The suspect in Club Q shooting identifies as non-binary, court documents say.

, a footnote appears confirming Aldrich’s identity. “Anderson Aldrich is nonbinary,” it reads. “They use they/them pronouns, and for the purposes of all formal filings, will be addressed as Mx. Aldrich.

” Aldrich is preliminarily charged with 10 criminal counts including first-degree murder in connection to the Colorado Springs attack, which left five dead and 17 others injured. Their motive for the shooting is unclear, with officials refusing to release details. They are set to make their first court appearance via video from the jail on Wednesday.

SICK of this “The Daily Beast” rag they call reporting. If it were a newspaper, it wouldn’t be worthy of lining a bird cage.🤷🏻‍♂️

Unless I see something that indicated this from before the shooting, I believe this is a pure cynical bullshit move to beat a hate crime rap.

What is important is that hater Aldrich massacred people.

There's no other evidence of their self-identification outside of this court filing. I would humbly suggest that you add an 'allegedly' before 'identifies' as well.

. . . so all you people in the thread who doubt their non-binariness, . . . you are now 'phobes' who are refusing to see they/them. Haters.

'Non-Binary, Defense Lawyers Claim' Claim Daily Beast are you refusing to 'see' trans people?

Don't even know what that means. Any other word that male or female makes me think mentally challenged person

WajahatAli hey beta it was an inside job.

Defense is lying

For better journalism than go to MrAndyNgo ➡️

What's a Mx?

Not again! Each time the person is not a straight white male conservative, it really hurts the narrative.

Feeble attempt to not get charged with a hate crime.

Bullshit

That's strange. I was told he was big-time maga.

I knew it

As if a non binary can't commit hate crimes. Nice try.

This is absolute rubbish, and just an attempt to change the narrative of the attack. Pathetic.

Old Twitter would have locked down these facts really quick.

Avoiding hate crime charges.

I would tend to believe them. People who do hate crimes, tend to want the world to know their motive.

Nobody cares …. He killed people PERIODT

Well that’s the biggest crock of 💩 I’ve ever heard!

Who gives a shit, DUDE needs the chair.

For Pete’s sake, when you read this story, with all the they/thems included, by the time you get to the end yr not sure if there was more than 1 shooter.

Cool

I want a lawyer to tell me he has to have established this gender identity prior to trying to use this defense. Otherwise, I’m going to lose my shit.

'defense lawyers claim' is the operative phrase there.

IDs as non binary to try to avoid hate crime charges

So he hates himself? 🧐

Lol… you can’t make this up

He doesn’t want those hate crime charges that are undoubtedly heading his way
