The Hennepin County District Court filed a criminal complaint charging Boelter with four felony counts of second-degree murder with intent (not premeditation).
The complaint accuses Boelter with two counts of second-degree murder for the murders of Victims 1 and 2 (Melissa and Mark Hortman) and two counts of attempted second-degree murder for the gunshots of Victims 3 and 4 (John and Yvette Hoffman).
All counts are felonies, with a potential punishment of 40 years in jail and a statutory minimum of three years for the use of a firearm.
According to police papers, Champlin Police responded to a 911 call at about 2:05 a.m., reporting that a masked suspect had shot two victims at a property. Officers discovered Victims 3 and 4, who had been shot but survived.
Surveillance footage showed a guy dressed in police-style tactical gear, subsequently identified as Boelter, approaching the property in a Ford SUV outfitted with police lights. According to officials, the film shows Boelter introducing himself as a police officer before entering the home and killing the victims.
According to records, Brooklyn Park Police were summoned to another member’s residence as a precaution around 90 minutes after learning that a legislator had been engaged in the previous incident.
Officers arrived about 3:35 a.m. and observed Boelter shoot Victim 2 through the open front door. Officers discovered Victims 1 and 2 dead from gunshot wounds.
Authorities discovered a worrisome arsenal in Boelter’s hands, according to records. Inside his registered car, authorities discovered three AK-47 assault weapons, a 9mm pistol, and a list of additional public officials’ names and addresses.
