Speaking out for the first time since two Minnesota state politicians and their spouses were shot, the wife of suspect Vance Boelter says she and her family are “shocked, heartbroken and completely blindsided” by the violent incident that killed one couple and seriously injured the other.

In the statement, Jenny Boelter expressed sympathies to the Hortman and Hoffman families, and recounted the hours after her husband allegedly shot the lawmakers and their spouses.

Federal prosecutors say it's possible Vance Boelter, who has not entered a plea yet, could face the death penalty.
