ICE ordered him deported. Then he killed 2 older gay men, police say.
A Hungarian man who was in the country illegally and slated for deportation was rearrested in Florida last week after he disabled his court-mandated ankle monitor and went on to strangle two older gay men, according to police.
Zsolt Zsolyomi, 26, is being held in Miami-Dade County on two charges of second-degree murder for allegedly killing the men and staging their deaths to hide his actions, arrest warrants obtained by The Washington Post show. One man's body was found in a bathtub, the other in a car that police alleged Zsolyomi crashed into a concrete wall to make it appear as though the dead man had been driving. Police wrote in the warrants that Zsolyomi admitted to the killings after being apprehended.

How Minnesota shooting suspect was found
The suspect wanted for killing a Minnesota state lawmaker and her husband and shooting another state senator and his wife was arrested late Sunday night after a manhunt spanning two days and involving nearly 200 law enforcement officers. Vance Boelter was arrested near his farm in Green Isle, Minn., late Sunday night. The 57-year-old is accused of killing Minnesota state House member Melissa Hortman (D), who formerly served as Minnesota state Speaker, and her husband, Mark, at their home while posing as a police officer. State Sen. John Hoffman (D) and his wife, Yvette, were also shot at their home. They underwent surgery and are receiving care, Gov. Tim Walz (D) said. He called the attacks 'politically motivated.' The search for Boelter was renewed early Sunday morning after authorities found his car and cowboy hat not far from his residence. But even after speaking with his wife and relatives, investigators could not find more on him for more than 10 hours. After an officer spotted a man running into the woods, authorities confirmed Boelter's presence in the area using an image from a trail camera. Law enforcement set up a perimeter and closed the distance to him in about 90 minutes using a helicopter, then used a drone to track him as he crawled through thick shrubs before being arrested, Brooklyn Park Police Chief Mark Bruley said at a press conference Sunday night. Boelter worked for a local security company called Praetorian Guard Security Services and claimed to have an extensive resume in several countries, including Eastern Europe, Africa, and parts of the Middle East, including the West Bank and Gaza. More recently, he worked for two funeral homes in the Minneapolis area before going back to Africa. After he returned, he worked a job 'extracting eyeballs from cadavers so they could be used for organ donation,' a roommate told The Washington Post. Boelter had ties to several religious groups and worked in Africa and the Palestinian territories to spread Christianity to 'militant Islamists.' A video on YouTube shows him preaching to a large church in Congo in 2022. His roommate told local news that Boelter had voted for President Trump and was 'a strong [Trump] supporter' but called him a 'very good guy.' Law enforcement said Saturday it found in Boelter's car a list of individuals — including Hortman, Hoffman and Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn.) — as well as flyers for the anti-Trump 'No Kings' protests. All coordinated 'No Kings' protests in Minnesota were canceled after state officials urged residents to avoid the demonstrations in the wake of the shooting. Thousands attended peacefully anyway.

Washington Post journalists who cover China had their email accounts hacked: report
Several journalists at The Washington Post who cover China had their email accounts compromised in a suspected cyberattack that may have been carried out by a foreign government, according to the Wall Street Journal. The breach, which affected Microsoft email accounts, potentially gave the intruders access to the contents of reporters' work emails, including messages sent and received, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter. Those targeted include members of the Post's national security and economic policy teams who cover China. Advertisement 3 Several journalists at The Washington Post who cover China had their email accounts compromised in a suspected cyberattack. Christopher Sadowski In a memo sent to staff on Sunday, Washington Post Executive Editor Matt Murray warned of a 'possible targeted unauthorized intrusion into our email system' and said the company believes 'a limited number of journalists' accounts were affected.' According to the memo, the breach was discovered Thursday evening, and an investigation is now underway. Murray, who previously handled a similar security breach while serving as editor in chief of the Journal, also stated that 'we do not believe this unauthorized intrusion impacted any additional Post systems or has had any impact for our customers.' Advertisement The employees affected by the cyberattack were notified in recent days and told not to discuss the matter publicly, according to the Journal. Law enforcement officials and cybersecurity experts told the Journal that journalists are common targets for nation-state hackers, who aim to collect sensitive information through their communications with sources. These operations often involve sophisticated surveillance tools and are sometimes linked to intelligence-gathering efforts by foreign governments. Advertisement In 2022, the Journal reported that hackers had breached the systems of its parent company, News Corp, dating back to at least early 2020. 3 The breach, which affected Microsoft email accounts, potentially gave the intruders access to the contents of reporters' work emails. Getty Images That attack, which also targeted journalists, allowed unauthorized access to emails, documents, and article drafts. A cybersecurity consultant for News Corp concluded that the breach was 'likely meant to gather intelligence to benefit China's interests,' and noted that the attackers appeared focused on issues like Taiwan and China's Uyghur ethnic group. Advertisement News Corp is the parent company of The New York Post. In contrast, the Washington Post hack appears to be more limited in scope, according to people familiar with the current investigation. The intruders are believed to have accessed only email accounts. Reporters at the paper said they typically avoid placing sensitive material in emails, instead relying on internal tools like Slack and secure messaging platforms such as Signal to communicate with colleagues and sources. In response to the breach, the Washington Post has implemented additional cybersecurity measures, including forcing a company-wide reset of login credentials. Microsoft, whose software was targeted in the intrusion, declined to comment when contacted by the Journal. As the investigation continues, it remains unclear who was behind the attack or what information may have been accessed. 3 In response to the breach, the Washington Post has implemented additional cybersecurity measures, including forcing a company-wide reset of login credentials. Christopher Sadowski Advertisement However, the incident underscores the ongoing vulnerability of media organizations to cyber threats, particularly those involving geopolitical reporting. The New York Post has sought comment from Microsoft and the Washington Post. The Washington Post has been embroiled in ongoing turmoil since late 2022, when it began facing steep declines in web traffic, digital subscriptions and ad revenue. These challenges triggered internal cost-cutting measures, including the shutdown of popular sections and cast doubt on the company's digital strategy. Advertisement In 2023, publisher Fred Ryan came under fire and was ultimately replaced by Will Lewis as leadership sought to steady the ship. Tensions escalated in fall 2024 after billionaire owner Jeff Bezos had intervened to spike a planned editorial endorsement of Kamala Harris, prompting backlash from subscribers and the resignation of key editorial voices. The unrest continued into January 2025, when Pulitzer Prize–winning cartoonist Ann Telnaes resigned in protest after a satirical cartoon targeting major tech executives, including Bezos, was rejected. By spring 2025, the paper was hit by a wave of high-profile departures, including managing editor Matea Gold and prominent reporters Josh Dawsey, Ashley Parker, Philip Rucker and Michael Scherer.
