A state senator in Minnesota is facing first-degree felony burglary charges after allegedly breaking into her stepmother's house in Detroit Lakes. The incident occurred early Monday morning when police responded to a report of a break-in and found the senator in the basement dressed in black attire.
The senator, identified as Nicole Mitchell, 49, was reportedly attempting to retrieve sentimental items related to her late father, including his ashes. Mitchell expressed her intentions to her stepmother, stating that she was trying to get her father's belongings as communication between them had ceased.
