Date: 2023-01-16

SANTA FE – Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham on Monday issued a statement following the arrest of former Republican state house candidate Solomon Peña on allegations related to shootings at the homes of multiple local elected officials:

“I commend the Albuquerque Police Department, State Police, the Bernalillo County Sheriff and the District Attorney’s Office for a successful partnership to apprehend the suspected perpetrator. There is no place in our society or our democracy for violence against any elected official or their families, and I trust the justice system will hold those responsible for such attacks to full and fair account.”
