Minneapolis Family Demands Answers After Border Patrol Officer Shooting
The heart-wrenching case of Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 25-year-old ICU nurse brutally shot and killed by a US Border Patrol officer in Minneapolis over the weekend, has left his family reeling in anguish. In a poignant written statement, his parents expressed their outrage towards top Trump administration officials who have so far refused to acknowledge the grave injustice that befell their son.
Describing Alex as "a man dedicated to caring for others and a compassionate advocate for social justice," his family is now pleading with authorities for answers about the circumstances surrounding his tragic death. While details of the incident are still unfolding, it's clear that the shooting has sent shockwaves through the community, leaving many questions unanswered.
The Trump administration officials in question have attempted to downplay Alex's involvement, labeling him a "domestic terrorist" - a characterization that his family vehemently disputes. In fact, they claim that their son was nothing more than an innocent victim of systemic injustice, gunned down while simply doing his job as an ICU nurse.
As the family struggles to come to terms with this devastating loss, they are now finding themselves at odds with those in power who seem more interested in protecting reputations than seeking truth. It remains to be seen how this case will unfold, but one thing is certain: Alex Jeffrey Pretti's family will not rest until they get the answers they so desperately seek.

. The fact that his own administration officials are trying to downplay his role and instead label him a domestic terrorist is just unbelievable 
. I mean, can't they see the humanity in the situation? This just goes to show how broken our system is - it's all about protecting reputations over seeking truth 
. Its time for some real accountability and answers from those who are supposed to be looking out for us 
.
Oh man, this just broke my heart 
A young nurse trying to do his job and gets shot by a border patrol officer 
. That's just... wow. 
We need more transparency from the authorities. This is just so... senseless 
, I mean come on, he was an ICU nurse for crying out loud! He wasn't some kind of threat to society 
. And yeah, the fact that they're more concerned with protecting their rep than finding the truth is super messed up 
. I hope they get the closure they need soon 
alex would've never hurt anyone in his life, he was just doin his job as an icu nurse 
now let's see if those in power will actually listen 2 his family & give them the answers they deserve 
. A Border Patrol officer shooting a guy who just happens to be an ICU nurse? It doesn't add up 
. It's just not right. We need to know what really went down here 
.
it's like, what even is going on here? where are the answers? shouldn't we be focusing on finding out what happened to alex instead of trying to deflect blame? this whole thing just feels so wrong 
. Like, what even is going on with our country right now? It's not about being a good or bad person, it's about doing your job and respecting human life. We need answers here ASAP 
.
. Like, can't we all just have a moment of understanding? The fact that his family is being labeled as liars by Trump administration officials is just sickening 
. It's like they're saying "the ends don't justify the means" but in this case, it's literally the only thing that matters 
. I mean, what kind of 'systemic injustice' would lead to this? The fact that the Trump admin is trying to paint Alex as some kinda 'domestic terrorist' is just laughable 
.
. And now these Trump admin officials are trying to spin it and call him a domestic terrorist? Give me a break! 
. I'm keeping an eye on this one, will definitely be interested in seeing how it all plays out
