Original Note:
The claim that Anderson Aldrich (formerly Nicholas Brink) is non-binary is a claim by defense attorney to protect agains hate charges. A 2015 event of online bullying against Brink, could have triggered the 2016 name change. Neighbors say that Aldrich used anti-gay slurs. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/defense-colorado-gay-club-shooting-suspect-is-nonbinary/2022/11/23/dd5a2f78-6af3-11ed-8619-0b92f0565592_story.html https://edition.cnn.com/2022/11/22/us/colorado-suspect-background-aldrich-invs/index.html https://www.9news.com/article/news/local/club-q-shooting/former-neighbor-says-club-q-suspect-hated-lgbtq-community/73-d705c231-24c2-496e-ac20-bfe3e373d9f4
