Vance Boelter has been charged in the shootings of two Minnesota lawmakers and their spouses, and the FBI says that he visited the homes of multiple other elected officials the night he killed Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, and wounded Minnesota Sen. John Hoffman and his wife separately. Boelter had a “hit list” of 45 officials.
Boelter, 57, is charged with two counts of second-degree murder and two counts of second-degree attempted murder, according to the criminal complaint filed in Hennepin County Court on Saturday.
Boelter is also facing six charges in federal court, including stalking and murder. The FBI held a conference Monday morning to share further details from their investigation, and he appeared in federal court in St. Paul Monday afternoon, wearing an orange jumpsuit and escorted by police.
