💨 Abstract

A suspect, Vance Boelter, is set to plead not guilty to charges of murdering a top Minnesota Democrat, her husband, and wounding a state senator and his wife. Boelter, an evangelical Christian with conservative views, confessed in a letter but his motivations remain unclear. The case involves extensive evidence, including thousands of hours of video footage and electronic data. Prosecutors have labeled the killing of Melissa Hortman a "political assassination."
