Calls mount on Trump administration to fully investigate Alex Pretti’s killing | The Guardian

Calls for a full investigation into the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Alex Pretti by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis have intensified, with both Republican and Democratic lawmakers demanding accountability. Video evidence shows officers removed a handgun from Pretti, who was not handling it, before shooting him. Republican Senator Bill Cassidy and Democratic Senator Amy Klobuchar have called for a transparent investigation, citing a breakdown of trust in law enforcement. Pretti's parents have also demanded the truth about their son's death, criticizing false claims made by the Trump administration. A federal judge has issued an order to prevent the destruction of evidence related to the incident.
