Ex-GOP candidate arrested in shootings at New Mexico elected officials' homes


Story by Gina Martinez • Yesterday 7:09 PM

Albuquerque police arrested a former Republican state House candidate in connection with recent shootings at the homes of Democratic lawmakers.


At a news conference on Monday night, Albuquerque Police Chief Harold Medina announced that Solomon Pena, 39, was in police custody following a SWAT standoff in Southwest Albuquerque Monday afternoon.

"It is believed that he is the mastermind behind this and that was organizing this," Medina told reporters in front of a projected picture of Pena wearing a red hoodie that reads "Make America Great Again" in front of two Trump flags.
"We are very grateful that we were able to get this individual into custody and to hopefully bring a little relief to those that were affected and all of our lawmakers, especially with state legislature starting tomorrow," Medina said.

Pena is accused of conspiring with and paying four other men to shoot at the homes of 2 county commissioners and 2 state legislators, police said.


Investigators said that five people were involved in the conspiracy and that Pena was directly involved in the final shooting. Evidence against Pena includes firearms, cell phone and electronic records, surveillance footage and multiple witnesses, investigators said.
The investigation into the shootings is still ongoing.


Pena's arrest comes after an unidentified suspect believed to be linked to at least one of the shootings was in taken into custody last week.

The shootings began in early December when eight rounds were fired at the home of Bernalillo County Commissioner Adriann Barboa, police said. Days later, state Rep. Javier Martinez's home was targeted, and a week after the initial shooting, someone shot at former Bernalillo County Commissioner Debbie O'Malley's home, police said.
Multiple shots also were fired at the home of state Sen. Linda Lopez — a lead sponsor of a 2021 bill that reversed New Mexico's ban on most abortion procedures — and in a downtown area where state Sen. Moe Maestas' office is located. Maestas, an attorney, co-sponsored a bill last year to set new criminal penalties for threatening state and local judges. It didn't pass.

No one was hit in any of the shootings, authorities said.

Mission

There is no systemic racism. Latino/Hispanic persons and our Black brethren are free to pursue fulfilling lives. Prior to Trump being President the coastal elites, welfare deadbeats, foreign nations and illegal aliens were benefiting at the expense of the American middle class. This was a consequence of multifaceted global forces of erosion such as globalization and it was specifically being done to appease the demonic theories of the Globalist Elites and their foreign counterparts. Donald Trump reversed the cited action as much as his constitutional authority permitted. All colors of Americans were better off when D. J. Trump was President.
 

Critical Race Theory by Solomon Pena​

Critical Race Theory, the entire Black Lives Matter movement, aborting the unborn, food stamps, affirmative action, etc. are all demonic. There is no inequality in the USA. The USA is a great land of freedom and opportunity for all who are willing to work. Solomon Pena is a Traditionalist, Religious conservative. Not a Neo or Individualist Conservative.


  • Build the Wall! Skills Based Immigration is What We Need. My first compassion is for my own people.
  • Protect the U.S. Const. 2nd amendment.
  • Support our local police. No defunding of the police.
  • Defeat the Deep State. Great empires do not fight endless wars.
  • Seek justice concerning the rigged 2020 Nov N.M. General Election. This action was treason. They overthrew DJT. The offenders are not criminal defendants, they are enemy combatants that must be placed in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba for the remainder of their natural lives.
  • Our military veterans have been abandoned, to include the Coast Guard. We must correct this great injustice.
  • Feminism is demonicism. All of our accumulated thoughts and knowledge are steadily being erased by it. Of the movements of our time, it is the most potentially corrosive and radical. Women and men are not equal. They have immutable characteristics that separate them from each other.
  • Two million more Latinos were in poverty in July 2016 than when President Obama took his oath of office less than eight years before that (2016 July). During his Presidential term, D. J. Trump had Hispanic unemployment at its lowest rate in U.S. history. Democrats are the enemy of all us working Hispanics.


Pena was apparently a Lyndon Larouche PAC follower, according to his website.
I've spent a great amount of time studying Larouche articles, probably the most historically accurate political group.
