1. Wide tracking shot of Former President Biden paying his respect to former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, who were gunned down earlier this month
STORYLINE:
Former President Biden paid his respect to former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, who were gunned down earlier this month in what authorities say was a politically motivated killing, as they lay in state today at the Capitol Rotunda.
The Hortmans were shot to death in their home in the northern Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Park early June 14. Before that, authorities say, the gunman wounded another Democrat, Sen. John Hoffman, and his wife, Yvette, who lived a few miles away in Champlin.
The Hortmans’ golden retriever, Gilbert, who was seriously wounded in the attack and had to be euthanized, will lie in state with them.
Federal prosecutors allege the man charged in the shootings, Vance Boelter, also stopped that night at the homes of two other Democratic lawmakers, who have identified themselves as Sen. Ann Rest, of New Hope, and Rep. Kristin Bahner, of Maple Grove.
Boelter’s federal defenders have declined to comment on the allegations. He remains jailed and has not entered a plea.
