Accused Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter extracted eyeballs from corpses for a living — and was on call night of double murder

Accused Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter’s most recent job was extracting eyeballs from corpses at a funeral home, according to a pal.

Boelter — a 57-year-old married dad who allegedly murdered Democratic state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, and wounded another Minnesota pol and his wife early Saturday — was carrying out his gruesome extraction work as part of an organ donation program, said the friend and sometime roommate David Carlson.

“I knocked on his door, and I said, ‘Hey Vance, are you there?’ ” Carlson recalled of his interaction with the accused killer around 7 p.m. Friday — just hours before Boelter unleashed his carnage.

“He goes, ‘Yeah, I’m in bed, and I’m trying to get some rest for work,'” Carlson said from the home in north Minneapolis where Boelter rented a room from him.

“He’d always said, ‘I need rest for work so I’m sharp’ because he was extracting eyeballs. You gotta be sharp for that,” Carlson said.

Funeral home doesn’t do this

The body is taken to a Donor Network facility within 24 hours to harvest what they can

They were calling me within minutes of the coroner making it official when I identified my son in November

Someone was able to use his corneas

The FBI should have kept an eye on him.

"Accused Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter extracted eyeballs from corpses for a living — and was on call night of double murder"

So while he was supposed to be on call, he was moonlighting shooting and killing RAT politicians and their spouses

Which is exactly why my original question was why we should be believing anything we are told on this murder. And, also if this supposed roommate is actually real?

The media is muddying the water to deflect attention

The fat, greasy, ugly pizza boy wouldn’t let anyone see that supposed text the killer sent

I think we're gonna find that the roommate is weird, too.

And that he helped Boelter load his truck and even made him lunches for his run...probably PB&J

Heard at a party:

"Well, I work on aircraft. So, what do you do?"

"Oh, I cut human eyeballs out of cadavers for a living".

"Um, hey, gotta go. Nice to meet 'ya...."
