On January 24, federal agents killed ICU nurse and community activist Alex Pretti in cold blood, after he tried to protect one of his neighbors. The Trump administration wasted no time putting forward a false narrative which completely distorted the events to justify Pretti’s murder. Pretti’s parents have released a statement to share the truth about their son, which we republish below.

We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in the world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.
I do not throw around the “hero” term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Can not imagine the pain their parents are going through right now.
The current administration is pure evil trying to hide their wickedness
Don’t expect the MSM to get the truth out because they are a highly compromised news source.
Speaking of getting the word out, where are these videos I don’t see any links in these threads, I haven’t watched them yet as I was not in the mood to watch another federal government snuff video.
Thanks. Jesus. What the fuck is wrong with cbp that they wanted to do that? Or local and state leaders that they aren’t even charging these guys with crimes, or even taking control of the crime scene.
This shit is going to happen all the time if the dems let them win these games of chicken.
