A new Minnesota Star Tribune investigation is providing the most in-depth timeline yet of the law enforcement response following the killings of State Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark and the shootings that injured State Sen. John Hoffman and his wife Yvette. The shootings led to a 43-hour statewide manhunt for the suspect, Vance Boelter, who is currently in federal custody awaiting potential trial.
