FBI reports reveal the suspect's alarming background and potential motivations amidst a tragic shooting incident involving lawmakers.
In Minnesota, the horrifying events surrounding the fatal shooting of Democratic House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark have shed light on the suspect's troubling lifestyle as a self-identified doomsday "prepper". According to the FBI, Vance Luther Boelter, 57, was charged with the murders and is believed to have meticulously planned the attack evidence of which might indicate intentions to target others as well.
Following a two-day manhunt, Boelter was apprehended in the woods last Sunday, while his wife, Jenny Boelter, was stopped driving their four children to safety. Investigators discovered that she had received a distressing text from her husband warning her to prepare for a violent scenario and to leave their home immediately. In her vehicle, authorities found a staggering $10,000 in cash along with two guns and passports, indicating possible planning for a hasty escape.
Jenny Boelter, who has not faced any charges, elaborated that her husband had devised a so-called "bailout plan" for emergencies. Interestingly, she also mentioned her husband's business partnerships including a security company based in Washington, with international links to Africa.
Following the attack, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz condemned the violence as an act of targeted political aggression. The suspect, Boelter, allegedly sent a disjointed letter to the FBI claiming that Minnesota’s governor orchestrated a plot for him to murder Senator Amy Klobuchar, although no evidence supports such a conspiracy.
Amid the chaos, it was reported that Boelter had compiled a list that included around 70 figures, all Democratic politicians, believed to be potential targets. In a shocking twist, Boelter disguised himself as a police officer to access the legislators' homes during the attack. One of the survivors, Yvette Hoffman, was shot while protecting her daughter and managed to call for help amidst the crisis.
