Woman who filmed Alex Pretti shooting reveals what she saw – confirms the rumors – Story Of The Day!

Pretti’s family has also spoken out forcefully, condemning what they describe as deliberate misinformation spread about their son. In a public statement released after officials portrayed Pretti as an armed aggressor, the family accused the administration of lying to justify his killing.

“The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting,” the statement read. “Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked. He has 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.”

They urged the public to examine the available footage and help ensure the truth about what happened is not buried beneath official statements.

“Please get the truth out about our son,” the family said. “He was a good man.”

As with the earlier killing of Renee Good, Pretti’s death has ignited renewed debate over the use of force by federal agents, particularly in civilian settings. Civil rights advocates argue that the incident reflects a pattern of escalation, poor judgment, and lack of accountability during enforcement operations. Supporters of federal agencies, meanwhile, have urged caution, insisting investigations should be allowed to proceed before conclusions are drawn.

Still, the growing body of video evidence and sworn testimony has made it increasingly difficult to reconcile initial official claims with what appears to have unfolded on the ground. The fact that Pretti was legally armed, disarmed by agents, and then shot while restrained has become central to calls for an independent investigation.
