Vance Boelter Sentencing Date Set

Vance Boelter, who pleaded guilty to fatally shooting former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, faces a federal sentencing on July 23rd at 10 AM in Minneapolis — with prosecutors recommending two consecutive life sentences plus 40 years. The plea deal, signed by the judge, fast-tracked his sentencing after he admitted to the killings, injuries to Senator John Hoffman and his wife, and an attempted shooting of their daughter — all part of a 43-hour manhunt. Though the DOJ dropped the death penalty, Boelter still faces serious state charges including two counts of first-degree murder, four attempted murders, and more, with a conviction carrying life without parole. The Hoffman family said true healing remains impossible without justice. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
