Prosecutors have filed a total of 305 charges, 48 ​​of which are suspected hate crimes — one for each person who was at Club Q, which has been described as a sanctuary for LGBTQ people.

It was shortly before midnight on November 19 that the 22-year-old allegedly entered the nightclub and opened fire with an AR-15-style rifle, according to prosecutors.

Two visitors managed to overpower the shooter and stop the attack.

Arrested by police before

The 22-year-old identifies as non-binary, according to defense documents.

According to prosecutors, it has also contributed to the consideration of also filing hate crime charges.

A year before the shooting at Club Q, the 22-year-old, who is now indicted, is said to have been arrested by the police task force after threatening to collect weapons and ammunition to become the "next mass murderer".

That investigation was later dropped.
