Family of Alex Pretti Demands Accountability Seven Months After Fatal CBP Shooting
Seven months after ICU nurse Alex Pretti was fatally shot by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents in Minnesota, his family is publicly calling for answers. The incident occurred during a January immigration enforcement operation, and the family is now seeking further transparency from the administration.
The family of Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse who died following a fatal shooting by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents in January, held a public appeal on Tuesday to demand accountability. The incident took place during a federal immigration enforcement operation in Minnesota. Seven months have passed since the shooting, and the family reports they are still seeking clarity regarding the circumstances of his death.
While the family has publicly expressed that they were not surprised by Pretti’s actions—noting his history of helping others—they remain focused on the lack of information provided by federal authorities since the event. The incident has drawn attention to the protocols used by CBP agents during domestic enforcement actions. As of now, the administration has not provided a detailed public response to the family's specific calls for accountability. The case remains a point of concern for those monitoring federal law enforcement conduct during immigration-related operations.
