Former GOP Candidate Indicted for Shooting Attacks on Democratic Officials' Homes

TL;DR Summary
Former Republican candidate Solomon Peña and two alleged accomplices have been indicted on federal charges, including election interference, in connection with a series of drive-by shootings at the homes of state and local lawmakers in Albuquerque. The attacks came amid a surge of threats and acts of intimidation against election workers and public officials across the country after former President Donald Trump and his allies spread false claims about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. No one was injured in the shootings, but in one case bullets passed through the bedroom of a state senator’s 10-year-old daughter.
