๐จ The federal government refused to release their names.
Congress was denied their names. The Governor of Minnesota
was denied their names. And then ProPublica published them
anyway. Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and CBP officer
Raymundo Gutierrez fired 10 shots in less than five seconds
at Alex Pretti โ an ICU nurse, a VA hospital employee,
a lawful gun owner with no criminal record โ as he lay
on the ground. And then the government lied about
every single detail of what happened.
๐ค WHO WAS ALEX PRETTI:
โ 37-year-old American citizen and ICU nurse at the
Minneapolis VA hospital โ employed by the same
United States government whose agents shot him
โ Lawful gun owner with a valid permit to carry โ
his only interactions with law enforcement
were traffic tickets
โ His parents described him as a "kindhearted soul
who cared deeply for his family and friends,
and also the American veterans who he cared
for as an ICU nurse"
โ His colleague at the VA said: "There is no reason
for a guy like that to be dead, let alone to be
killed by the agents of a government
that employed him"
๐ซ THE TWO AGENTS WHO SHOT HIM:
โ Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa, 43, and CBP officer
Raymundo Gutierrez, 35 โ both assigned to Operation
Metro Surge โ fired on Pretti as he lay on the
ground after being pepper sprayed
โ The federal government refused to release their names
to Congress, to the Governor of Minnesota, and to
Minneapolis city officials โ ProPublica published
them after viewing government records directly
โ Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee accused
the DOJ of covering up evidence in both Pretti's
AND Renee Good's killings โ writing that "DOJ has
blocked prosecutors and agents from cooperating
with state law enforcement and prevented state
officials from accessing evidence"
โ Both agents remained on the job after the shooting โ
relocated out of Minneapolis for their own safety
โ CBP confirmed both men "will remain Border
Patrol agents"
๐ฅ WHAT THE VIDEO ACTUALLY SHOWS:
โ ABC News verified a minute-by-minute timeline โ
Pretti was holding his phone recording agents
THREE MINUTES before the first shot was fired
โ CBS News verified videos show Pretti holding a phone
in his right hand and nothing in his left hand
before he was shot
โ Multiple verified videos show a federal agent in a
gray jacket reaching into the scuffle empty-handed
and emerging with a gun โ then turning AWAY from
Pretti when the first shot was fired
โ A physician witness testified that agents were not
performing CPR on Pretti but instead appeared to
be counting his bullet wounds
โ A pediatrician who watched from their apartment
window filed a sworn affidavit: "The man did not
approach the agents with a gun. He approached
them with a camera. He was just trying to
help a woman get up"
๐คฅ WHAT THE GOVERNMENT SAID:
โ DHS claimed Pretti "approached U.S. Border Patrol
officers with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun"
and "violently resisted"
โ Border Patrol Commander Bovino claimed Pretti
may have wanted to do "maximum damage"
and "massacre law enforcement"
โ Kristi Noem said Pretti "arrived at the scene
to inflict maximum damage on individuals
and to kill law enforcement"
โ Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara responded:
"The Minneapolis Police Department went the entire
year last year recovering about 900 guns from the
street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders โ
and we didn't shoot anyone"
โ Governor Walz called the government's account
"nonsense" and "lies"
๐ Alex Pretti was a nurse who spent his career
caring for American veterans.
He was shot 10 times in under five seconds.
The agents who shot him are still employed.
The body camera footage has not been released.
The cover up is ongoing.
