DENVER — The man sentenced for the Club Q mass shooting in November 2022, killing five people and injuring 17 others, has been booked into the Denver Reception and Diagnostic Center.

23-year-old Anderson Lee Aldrich pleaded guilty to the five counts of first-degree murder and all 46 counts of attempted first-degree murder, and pleaded “no contest” to two charges of bias-motivated crimes. That means he does not have the possibility of parole.

Alrich uses they/them pronouns.

They were sentenced to five consecutive life sentences plus 2,208 years in the department of corrections– the longest sentence handed down in the 4th Judicial District and second-longest in state history, according to District Attorney Michael Allen.

The death penalty was mentioned by some of the victims during Anderson’s Monday sentencing and press conference.

Colorado does not have a death penalty as a sentence for serious crimes. It was repealed by the governor in 2020.

However, the FBI has opened an investigation to determine if the Club Q shooter should face federal charges and the possibility of the death penalty, even though it’s abolished on the state level.
