An Albuquerque, New Mexico man was arrested Monday in connections a series of shootings targeting four Dem politicians’ homes area and – Surprise! – he’s a failed Republican candidate for the state legislature who sought revenge for his defeat by hiring four men to terrorize the Dems.
Solomon Peña, who lost the race for New Mexico’s 14th State House District in November, was arrested at his home Monday following a lengthy standoff with a SWAT team. At least two of the four shootings at the homes of two state House members and two county commissioners have been definitively linked to Peña through ballistics evidence. The man who was arrested last Monday in connection appears to be one of the goons Peña hired to carry out the attacks. Fortunately no one was injured in any of the shootings, the targets of which strangely did not include Democrat State Representative Miguel Garcia, who defeated Peña by 47 percent in the November election.
