State Murder Case Against Boelter Begins

(FOX 9, Minneapolis, MN) Vance Luther Boelter, already convicted in federal court of killing Melissa and Mark Hortman and trying to kill Sen. John Hoffman and his family, faced new state murder charges Monday in Hennepin County.

Boelter spoke at length in court about conspiracies, religious freedom, and health issues related to solitary confinement.

The case did not move forward Monday, and the defendant remains in jail until the judge reviews written arguments from both sides.
