Minnesota State Senator Nicole Mitchell faces an additional felony charge related to her arrest with burglary tools.

Minnesota State Senator Nicole Mitchell faces an additional felony charge of "possession of burglary or theft tools" in relation to her April 2024 arrest at her stepmother's home, where she was found with a flashlight and a crowbar. Originally charged with first-degree burglary, Mitchell maintains her innocence and has pleaded not guilty. Her trial, initially set for January, was delayed until June due to Minnesota law, which exempts lawmakers from court appearances during legislative sessions. Senate Republicans have criticized the situation, calling forMitchell's resignation.
