EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. – The survivors of a mass shooting at an LGBTQ+ club in Colorado Springs are planning to sue the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office, claiming the law enforcement agency failed to trigger Colorado’s red flag law that would have allowed authorities to seize the suspect’s weapons following a 2021 incident which the suspect said was a prelude to them becoming “the next mass killer” in America.
The notices of claim were filed by Romanucci & Blandin LLC of Chicago and the Parker Lipman LLP law firm of Denver in mid-May on behalf of James Slaugh, Tiffany Loving, Ashtin and Ryan Gamblin, JanCarlos Del Valle, Adriana Vance, Charlene Slaugh, John Arcediano, and Anthony Malburg and Jeremy Gold.
The victims are seeking $20 million in damages each, according to the documents.

I'm glad the victims are suing over the red flag law. How many mass shootings do we see here on WS that the shooter clearly should not have had access to a weapon? I also think the case will be an easy win, given the shooter's previous interactions with LE.

Suspect in mass shooting at Colorado gay nightclub expected to take plea deal
The suspect in a mass shooting at a Colorado Springs gay nightclub is expected to strike a plea deal to state murder and hate charges that would ensure at least a life sentence for the attack that killed five people and wounded 17
June 15, 2023,
''COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. -- The suspect in a mass shooting at a Colorado Springs gay nightclub is expected to strike a plea deal to state murder and hate charges that would ensure at least a life sentence for the attack that killed five people and wounded 17, several survivors told The Associated Press.
Word of a possible legal resolution of last year’s Club Q massacre follows a series of jailhouse phone calls from the suspect to the AP expressing remorse and the intention to face the consequences at the next scheduled court hearing this month.
“I have to take responsibility for what happened,” 23-year-old Anderson Lee Aldrich said in their first public comments about the case.
Federal and state authorities and defense attorneys declined to comment on a possible plea deal. But Colorado law requires victims to be notified of such deals, and several people who lost loved ones or were wounded in the attack told the AP that state prosecutors have given them advance word that Aldrich will plead guilty to charges that would ensure the maximum state sentence of life behind bars.''
