Former Juneau County Judge John Roemer, 68, dies in his home after being zip-tied to a chair

Mitch McConnell and Gretchen Whitmer were discovered on a “hit list” in the car of the gunman who killed a retired judge in Wisconsin.

The message left by the 56-year-old shooter who killed 68-year-old John Roemer included the Senate Minority Leader, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder, and Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers.

Cops made the unexpected finding after being called to the lawmaker’s home at 6.30 p.m. yesterday in response to reports of gunfire.

Officers raided the house at 10:15 a.m., finding the militia member in severe condition after shooting himself, as well as Roemer, who was zip-tied to a chair and dead.

‘This does appear to be a targeted act,’ Attorney General Josh Kaul said. The AG also said the politicians have been notified of the hit list.

‘Those who may have been other targets have been notified of that, but we are not aware of any active threat to individuals,’ he said at a press conference.

‘At this point, we are not aware of any evidence indicating that there is any active danger to other individuals.

‘If we become aware of any specific ongoing threat, we will certainly notify people when we are aware of that.’

Authorities are investigating the case as a homicide and a domestic terrorist attack, and they are looking into court records.

The shooter’s wrath, according to law officials, is the subject of a legal case. Next-door neighbor Donna Voss expressed her surprise to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

‘One of my neighbors called and said what’s going on, what’s going on. It was really surprising something like this would happen around here. I still can’t comprehend it.’
