Victims and family members of those killed in the 2022 mass shooting at the LGBTQIA+ Club Q in Colorado Springs have sued the El Paso County Board of Commissioners and others, alleging authorities could have prevented the shooting if they had enforced the state’s “red flag law” against the gunman.

Law enforcement missed critical opportunities to prevent a 2022 mass shooting at an LGBTQ+ nightclub in Colorado, a pair of lawsuits allege.

Victims and family members of the Club Q shooting are suing the El Paso County commissioners and sheriff for failing to use the red flag law.

Colorado's Red Flag Law passed in 2019, allowing certain community members, family, and law enforcement to petition a judge to remove someone's guns if they are a risk to themselves or others.

A central focus of both lawsuits was the El Paso County commissioners’ and the then sheriff’s refusal to enforce Colorado’s red flag law passed in 2019, which allows law enforcement to temporary take someone’s firearm if they are deemed a threat to themselves or others.

Many survivors from the Club Q mass shooting say they're still recovering from what happened, and one of them and some family members of the victims are taking legal action.
