A federal grand jury has indicted Vance Boelter, who is accused of shooting prominent Minnesota Democratic politicians.

The man accused of fatally shooting House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, as well as injuring state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, will stay in federal custody after waiving a detention and preliminary hearing during his court appearance Thursday.

The man charged with killing former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, recently spoke with the New York Post from Sherburne County Jail.

“Your honor, I’m looking forward to court, and looking forward to the facts about the 14th coming out,” Boelter told Magistrate Judge Douglas Micko. Boelter affirmed that he knowingly waived his rights to the full hearings he was entitled to Thursday. “That gets us to court faster, where the truth can come out.”
