A strongly worded rebuttal from Sheriff Joel Brott.

Attorneys for Vance Boelter, the man accused of assassinating a Minnesota lawmaker, complain he is jailed in poor conditions, including an inmate spreading feces around. @PaulBlume_FOX9 joined me with the latest. @livenowfox

VANCE BOELTER when asked abt delaying today's hearing because of alleged deplorable jailhouse conditions: “Your honor, I haven’t really slept in 12-14 days… I appreciate the motion.. understand and agree to that.. I have never been suicidal. And I am not suicidal now.” @FOX9

Stunning developments in federal ct for suspected political assassin VANCE BOELTER. Showed up in full suicide protection suit. Atty says he is facing deplorable jail conditions, successfully arguing for hearing to be delayed until next week so he can be in better state. @FOX9

BOELTER'S BUICK: What's the deal w/ the Buick & e-bike Vance Boelter reportedly purchased while on run? I tracked down the seller. He isn't saying much. But the Brooklyn Pk police chief believes it was a last, desperate move by Boelter to get away. @FOX9: youtu.be/mhyaQ-S-z3I?si…

Federal charges against VANCE BOELTER include murder charges with potential of death upon conviction. @FOX9

#BREAKING: Vance Luther Boelter booked into Henn Co Jail. Inmate #202503090. For now, Boelter facing 2nd degree murder & attempted murder charges in state court. No 1st court date listed. In MN, prosecutors must go to a grand jury to indict on a charge of Murder-1. @FOX9

Just got emergency alert in Brooklyn Pk that 3-mile wide Shelter- in-Place order is LIFTED. Bulletin states authorities no longer believe armed suspect is in area. Still seeing heavily armed SWAT teams respond to presumed tips in the neighborhood around Hortman home. @FOX9
