An exclusive look at the professional resume of Vance Luther Boelter — the 57-year-old man accused in the targeted shooting deaths of Minnesota State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband, and the wounding of State Senator John Hoffman and his wife — offers insight into the corporate, nonprofit, and self-promotional background of the suspect now at the center of a statewide manhunt.

The resume, reportedly obtained from a recruiter, is laden with polished corporate language.

Boelter presents himself as a seasoned executive with “emotional intelligence” and extensive experience in “senior leadership roles,” overseeing “multimillion-dollar budgets.”

He claims to have held key management positions at major companies, including Nestlé, Del Monte, 7-Eleven, and Johnsonville Sausage.

Since 2021, Boelter lists himself as the CEO and co-founder of an organization called Red Lion Group. While some external reports have described Red Lion Group as a private security firm with operations in Africa — specifically the Democratic Republic of the Congo — Boelter’s own resume omits any reference to Africa or private military activity. Instead, it focuses on his purported efforts to expand the company into new markets and represent it at investor meetings and industry conferences.

There is no mention of political affiliations or extremist views within the document. However, one religious affiliation appears to be implied through Boelter’s educational background: he claims to hold a Doctorate in Leadership from Cardinal Stritch University, a now-defunct private Catholic institution in Wisconsin. Additionally, nonprofit records list him as the president of a religiously inspired charity called “You Give Them Something to Eat,” a name derived from a biblical passage.

Though his resume attempts to project a business-focused, apolitical persona, Boelter has expressed ideological concerns publicly. In a 2019 comment posted on LinkedIn, he urged followers to “pray for the political future of the United States” and encouraged people to “vote your values.” He described the then-upcoming election as one with the potential for “greater impact” than any in recent history.

Authorities say that Boelter, who remains at large, left behind a manifesto and a target list in his vehicle.

That list reportedly included not only the names of Representatives Hortman and Hoffman but also prominent Democratic figures such as Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar, U.S. Senator Tina Smith, and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

Abortion providers and pro-choice activists were also among the listed targets.

The intention in sharing Boelter’s resume is to provide verified, factual context amid growing speculation and misinformation surrounding this high-profile and politically charged case.

While law enforcement continues to withhold certain details, documents like these may contribute to a clearer public understanding of the suspect’s background.
