Vance Luther Boelter, the man accused of the targeted assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, has unleashed a wild tirade about Governor Tim Walz.
In a bombshell exclusive interview with the New York Post from behind bars, Boelter,57, branded Walz a “traitor to the American people” and accused him of cozying up to Communist China.
Boelter, currently incarcerated in the Sherburne County Jail, spoke to the New York Post via the facility’s internal messaging system.
The accused killer claimed he first met the governor when Walz “personally reappointed” him to Minnesota’s Workforce Development Council in 2019. He accused Walz of repeatedly praising China, quoting him as saying, “China was the future, China knows how to get things done, China knows how to control their people.”
Boelter further alleged Walz pushed socialist ideals, stating, “Tim would say stuff like everyone should be either working for the government, or be supported by the government.” He even claimed Walz encouraged him to visit China, promising, “He said they will make sure you have a really good time,” with such talks happening over the phone.
Walz has a long history with China. The governor first visited in 1989 as a recent college graduate through the WorldTeach program in Foshan, and later helped launch a student exchange program in Beijing in 1992. In a 1991 school lesson, Walz reportedly described China’s communist system as one where “everyone is the same, and everyone shares.”
According to Boelter, he carried a list that included Walz’s name that day, but he insists it wasn’t a “hit list.” Instead, he claims it named individuals “getting massive financial amounts from the Chinese government,” based on unspecified financial documents he’d seen.
The accused killer described his original plan as executing “four or five Citizen arrests” to interrogate the targets about alleged deaths from the COVID-19 vaccine and supposed government cover-ups, with everyone to be released safely the next morning.
“My goal was not to go around shooting people,” the accused killer told The Post.
The Post reports:
Boelter wanted to “question” his targets about how people “were dying in Minnesota after getting the COVID 19 vaccine” and “how the MN government leaders were covering it up.”
His plan “went horribly wrong,” after the Hoffman’s and their adult daughter rushed at and tried to subdue him.
“At that moment I aimed the gun down between us at the floor hoping not to shoot my foot and just started firing until I was out of the house,” he told The Post, adding his “mask had shifted during the struggle,” so he couldn’t see where he was shooting.
“As I started shooting, people started letting go at different times and so my arm was being pushed and pulled and so where [sic] all the rounds that were going at That point is hard to say. When I stopped shooting I realized I was outside the door.”
Boelter has pleaded not guilty to murdering Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, as well as attempting to murder state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife Yvette during a shooting spree on June 14.
The accused killer told the newspaper that he is upset that he faces the death penalty, because he had opted not to shoot at police.
“If I withheld shooting at the police and they decide to pursue the death penalty that will send the message that the government sees no value in that,” he said. “That’s not a good message to put out there.”
The US Attorney’s office in Minnesota stated they’ve “seen no evidence that the allegations regarding Governor Walz are based in fact,” while Walz’s office called the June shooting “deeply disturbing” and a “tragedy.”
