Judge orders no bail for shooting suspect
The suspect accused of killing five and wounding 18 inside a Colorado Springs LGBTQ nightclub appeared in court for the first time Wednesday and was ordered held without bond while facing preliminary murder and hatecrime charges.
The five-minute, largely technical proceeding marked the first public appearance for the suspected shooter, who joined the court via video conference and spoke just four mumbled words — first name, last name and an acknowledgment of constitutional rights — from a slumped, seated position. Another hearing was set for early December, when prosecutors say they will present formal charges against Anderson Lee Aldrich, 22.
