Medical Examiner Rules Alex Pretti Shooting Death a Homicide
The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office has ruled the death of Alex Pretti, who was shot by federal immigration agents on January 24, as a homicide. This ruling confirms that Pretti died from multiple gunshot wounds inflicted by law enforcement. While the White House has sought to distance President Trump from controversial remarks by officials labeling Pretti a “domestic terrorist,” the Justice Department has initiated a civil rights investigation into the shooting. In response to the incident, all Homeland Security officers in Minneapolis will be issued body cameras.
