Hallie Marie Tobler Obituary St. Cloud, MN — The St. Cloud community and the family of political figure Jeff Johnson are grieving the heartbreaking loss of Hallie Marie Tobler, 22, who was fatally stabbed in her home over the weekend in a tragedy that has shocked loved ones, classmates, and neighbors.
Hallie was described by those who knew her as a bright, kind, and hopeful young woman with a genuine spirit and deep connections to family and friends. Her sudden and violent death has left a profound void in the lives of all who knew her.
According to the St. Cloud Police Department, officers responded to a report of a medical emergency at Hallie’s residence on Saturday evening. Upon arrival, they found her with multiple stab wounds; she was pronounced dead at the scene. Her husband, 23‑year‑old Dylan Michael Tobler, was also found injured and later hospitalized with what authorities describe as self‑inflicted wounds.
Law enforcement has since charged Dylan Tobler with second‑degree murder in connection with Hallie’s death, and he is being held in custody pending legal proceedings.
Hallie was the daughter of Jeff Johnson, a former St. Cloud City Council member and 2026 Republican gubernatorial candidate. In the wake of this devastating loss, Johnson has suspended his campaign, citing the unimaginable grief of losing a child.
