The suspect accused of assassinating a Minnesota lawmaker and shooting another this weekend drove to the homes of at least four state politicians as part of a carefully planned attack, federal authorities said on Monday.
Federal officials say the suspect in the Minnesota lawmaker shootings had notebooks with a list of over 45 state and federal officials to target. Rep. Kelly Morrison, who says she was on the list, joins Chris Jansing to discuss how “traumatic” the shootings have been on her community and why she fears the political violence will have a chilling effect on the country.
After a 43-hour search, Boelter was arrested in rural Sibley County and charged with two counts of murder and two counts of attempted murder.
