He is the father of Anderson Lee Aldrich, who was convicted of committing the Club Q shooting on November 19–20, 2022 and sentenced to life in prison.[9] Brink stated that he "praised [Aldrich] for violent behavior really early", affirming that it was "instant with immediate results".[8] Aldrich sought to dissociate with his father after moving to Colorado, changing his name to "protect himself" from Brink.[8]

In an interview after the shooting, Brink stated that he was a "conservative Republican" and a Mormon, he stated that when he learned the shooting was at an LGBTQ bar, he was initially horrified by the possibility that Aldrich might be gay, then relieved to discover that was not the case.[10] The reporter later mentioned that his reaction was not included in the original report, but when Brink learned about the victims, he profusely apologized to the community.[11]
