'I'm going to blow this place to holy hell!' Colorado gay club shooter is seen in 2021 bomb threat video before surrendering to cops at his mom's house - as he's charged with five counts of murder over Saturday's nightclub attack

DailyMail.com can reveal the first photograph of Colorado gay club shooter Anderson Lee Aldrich along with video he filmed of himself threatening to blow his mother's house to 'holy hell' a year ago.

Aldrich, 22, was taken into custody at the house where his mother, Laura Voepel, was renting a room in June 2021 in Colorado Springs. He was charged with felony menacing and kidnapping but was released from custody.

On Saturday, he is accused of opening fire in Club Q just before midnight, murdering five people and injuring others. The club's owners say he arrived with 'tremendous firepower' - an AR-15 rifle, six magazines of ammo and a handgun. Patrons used the handgun he was carrying to beat him to the ground until police arrived. The sheriff's department has not yet released his mugshot.

On Monday, he was charged with five counts of murder and five counts of committing a hate crime.

The incident last year involved Aldrich fleeing to the home where his mother was renting a room. He had been living nearby with his grandma, Pam Pullen, and her husband Jonathan, but went on the run after threatening to kill them.

His mother Laura is shown on Ring camera footage from that day welcoming her into the house, helping him with his suitcase. Once inside, he filmed himself in SWAT gear, broadcasting live on his mother's Facebook account.

Pretty much.

Sounds like he should have been in the nut house with Nurse Mildred Ratched looking out for him.

“charged with felony menacing and kidnapping but was released from custody”

I am guessing that he was out on bail and awaiting trial?

But, how was he in possession of any guns? With those kind of charges, you’d think Leo would have confiscated anything he had.

And should have been prevented from buying anything new as he would be “under indictment” and should have been flagged on any purchases?

I think he wasn’t charged.

i read that he knew people in the club...and some knew him...maybe changes the motive and that’s why they’re hesitating to call it a hate crime.

I’ e read that there was no bomb. That knocks it down to a misdemeanor.

"So we've known he's coco for cocoa puffs for how long?"

It looks more and more like this is yet another case of prosecutorial malfeasance endangering the public with fatal consequences, yet the left is trying to blame conservative rhetoric. As usual.

US President Joe Biden condemned the attack, slamming violence against the LGBTQ community, particularly transgender women of color.

What did the shooter do. First separate by race, then by sex, then by gender?
