Exclusive: In Congress, Minnesota’s highest blowout was the blow-up of Gov. Tim Walz Released from prison.
“Again, Tim Walz proves why he is one of the worst governors in the country,” House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn. Tell Fox News Digital.
“Not only will he adopt a gentle criminal policy that puts the justice that victims deserve, but also puts the safety of every Minnesota at risk. As a self-proclaimed knuckle head, he cannot be confused by his dangerous, distant agenda.”

Emmer, as a Republican whip, is third House Republicans Leader.
He is joining other Republicans in his state for criticizing David Brom’s release, a man who was convicted of killing his parents and killed two young siblings with an axe in 1988. Brom was only 16 years old at the time.
“Getting murderers like David Brom back to our streets is a face for these victims and their families, undermining the rule of law, reducing public trust in our justice system and endangering the safety of the community,” Emer said.
Brom was awarded supervision work release Minnesota by A new law in 2023 limits life imprisonment for juvenile offenders.

It began with a bill in the state legislature and was then signed into law by Walz, thereby applying for future criminals and tracing back to people like Brom.
Emmer criticized Walz and the Minnesota Democrats-Farmer-Labor party’s policies as “criminal crime” and believed that such changes in the law would have “serious consequences.”
“They are forcing the law-abiding Minnesotans to pay the price,” Emmer said.
Brom served in jail for 37 years after being convicted of four counts of first-degree murder, and the jury refused to be accused of mental illness. He was sentenced to three consecutive life imprisonment and simultaneously to life imprisonment.

There is no new law, and after serving 52 years in prison, Brom will be eligible for parole in 2037.

The law does not give juvenile offenders automatic release, but rather gives them the right to appear before the Supervisor Release Commission after at least 15 years – but in some cases, depending on the nature of the crime, it may take longer – to make their early release arguments.
Brom was granted supervised release and was sent out of jail early last week.
Fox News Digital and Walz’s office made a comment but didn’t hear it immediately.
