Monday's procedural state court hearing came less than two weeks after Boelter's sentencing in federal court. The judge told Boelter that any arguments he wants to make about his case could be made at future hearings by his attorney. If convicted of the state charges, Boelter could face mandatory life in prison without the possibility of parole. In state court, Boelter faces two counts of murder for killing the Hortmans, four counts of attempted murder, impersonating a police officer and animal cruelty. Boelter's next state court appearance is set for Sept. 2.
