Accused killer Vance Boelter hints at motive in Post jailhouse interview
Share this @internewscast.com

The man charged with the politically motivated murder of a Minnesota lawmaker and her spouse insisted to The Post this week that the killings were unrelated to President Trump or abortion—yet refrained from revealing what allegedly motivated his actions.

“You’re searching, and I can’t discuss my case…I’ll state it wasn’t connected to Trump matters or pro-life,” Vance Boelter communicated this week from a cell at Sherburne County Jail in Elk River, roughly 30 miles northwest of Minneapolis.

“I am personally pro-life but it wasn’t related to those,” he conveyed via the jail’s internal messaging system. “I will just note that there’s a significant amount of information that will surface in the future that people will evaluate and form opinions on, dating back 24 months before the 14th. If the government ever allows it to be released.” 

The Post’s communication with Boelter, 57, included messages and two separate, 20-minute video visits Friday — and were his first public words, outside of brief court hearings, since his arrest for the murders of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, in their Brooklyn Park home around 3:30 a.m. on June 14. 

Boelter harped on a handwritten, one-and-a-half page letter left in an abandoned SUV at the crime scene that was addressed to FBI Director Kash Patel, saying critical elements were kept from the public.

“Can I ask what you heard as an outside person about the note that the alleged person — I’ll say alleged person — left in that car, did you hear anything about that?” demanded Boelter, wearing a yellow, jail-issued jumpsuit, in a thick Minnesotan accent.

In the letter, which has not been released publicly, Boelter reportedly claimed he had been secretly trained by the US Military and was asked by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to perform the killings, so that the 2024 Democratic vice presidential candidate could run for Minnesota Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar’s seat. 

“Certain details of that letter were leaked out that probably painted one kind of a picture, but a lot more important details that were in that letter were not leaked out,” Boelter said during the second televisit Friday, refusing to elaborate on the alleged details, besides to say they pertained to “things that were going on in Minnesota.”

“I also made sure when I was arrested that they secured that letter — I made the request that they secure that letter before it gets destroyed — because I was concerned somebody would destroy it,” he said. 

Law enforcement found the letter alongside a hit list of 70 other politicians, including Walz and abortion providers in the North Star State, and flyers for the “No Kings” anti-Trump rallies scheduled the same day as the killings.

He told The Post after a long pause that he supported Trump, but refused to clarify his relationship to and feelings toward Democrat Walz, who appointed Boelter to Minnesota’s Workforce Development Council in 2019.

Boelter — who authorities say wore a creepy latex mask and a police officer’s uniform during the attacks — is also accused of shooting state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, at their Champlin home during the sick, early morning spree.

In response to a question about his feelings toward the victims and their families, Boelter bizarrely invoked his Christian faith — recalling a Bible verse in which God tells his followers to love thy neighbors. 

“I forgot which verse it was…but I’ve always followed that,” Boelter said of the teaching. 

“You can maybe ask…if somebody believes that, and they love God and that they love their neighbor…allegedly, how could they be involved in a situation where some people are no longer here that were here before?” he eerily inquired. 

“I’ll let you chew on that one,” he said.

The ordained minister and father of four — who claimed to have business ventures in the food, farming, security and several other industries — also gave a small glimpse into his own family’s turmoil.

“I talked to my wife for 2 minutes shortly after my arrest and then the call was cut off. Nothing since then. My wife and family had nothing to do with any of this. They were all shocked like others,” he wrote, referring to wife Jenny Boelter.

Boelter’s family were “completely blindsided” by his alleged crimes, they said in a June 26 statement released through their lawyer.

“On behalf of my children and myself, I want to express our deepest sympathies to the Hortman and Hoffman families,” his wife, Jenny Boelter, said in the statement. “This violence does not at all align with our beliefs as a family.” She did not return requests for comment.

Besides his wife and The Post, the accused assassin has only had contact with his lawyer and correctional officers inside the county lockup, where he’s been held in a central booking cell for nearly a month. 

“My immune system is failing because I am being held in a booking cell that’s not made to live in,” he whined. “[I] wasn’t issued cloths [sic] for almost 3 weeks. Lights never shut off. Sleep on plastic pad on concrete floor.”

“I’m not allowed to be around or talk to anyone except the guards,” he wrote. 

Sherburne County Jail officials could not be reached for comment. The FBI did not respond to inquiries by the time of publication.
