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.
