    Bullet casings, for one. More than one person shot him.

      The firearm they claim to have taken off him. The photo they posted is old and literally off Google Images.

        The CNN video shows them disarming him and it not being in the beating area when the murder happens

        https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/25/us/video/minneapolis-ice-shooting-alex-pretti-visual-analysis-digvid

        That picture might not be that gun, but there is proof they should have a gun in their possession.

      Felony murder rule. If you take part in a felony and someone dies as an outcome, you can be charged with murder.

      It’s how getaway drivers for gas station robberies get convicted of murder when things go south and their buddy shoots the clerk.

      Out of all the angles I’ve seen, there only appears to be one agent that shoots him.

        Look for more angles I guess. There’s at least 2.

      –I only saw one agent shoot him.–

      Edit: For clarification, in the videos I only see one agent pull out a gun and shoot. If anyone could be so kind to show me where other agents are pulling out their weapons and shooting, that would be swell.

      And for the record, fuck ICE. I hate these Nazi wannabe sons of bitches as much as anyone else on here.

      EDIT2:

      Thanks @[email protected] for providing this video! Now it’s pretty clear there were more than one agent shooting Petti.

          Hoooooly shit.

          Ok. Yeah now it’s clear. What’s also clear is this was a fucking execution. (As if this wasn’t obvious enough from the first footage that came out.)

          Absolutely disgusting.

            Ya, the more videos that come out the worse and worse this is getting.

            The first video I saw, I only heard 3 shots. I was shocked when more videos came out and it was way more than that. Like wtf.

        Only one agent shot him.

        The debate is whether the first shot was the gun they took off him misfiring.

          Not misfiring, a misfire is a malfunction of the weapon or ammo. This would be the ICE agent incompetently discharging the weapon while disarming him.

            ? Yeah no shit. The debate was because the gun he had was known to misfire.

            “Negligent discharge” is the legal term im pretty sure.

            Implying the person who did it doesn’t know how to properly handle a firearm.

          Ah! Ok. No I don’t think that’s what I saw. They pulled something off his back, and THEN the ICE agent pulled out THEIR gun and shot the man. That’s pretty clear. The victim never even touched his own gun.

          At least that’s what I saw in the videos.

          There was no need to shoot him. They had wrestled him to the ground. He wasn’t a threat. This is absolutely an abuse of power and should be considered as a murder. There’s no doubt in my mind.

            That’s not in conflict with what I said. The debate was whether the gun misfired when the first agent walked away with it.

                I didn’t think there was just stating what the debate was.

                There is a gif floating about that shows what looks like the chamber of his gun shifting - but it’s very low-res and there’s no associated smoke/recoil or anything, could just be an artefact / light

                And it seems the main shooters elbow did recoil slightly alongside the 1st shot.

          Bullshit. Video evidence shows at least two, and possibly three murderers.

              Maybe he was misinformed himself, and the attitude you’re presenting isn’t going to change his, or anyone else’s mind.

          Dude. The video only clearly shows one ICE agent shooting the victim.

          Accepting that as fact doesn’t make us fascist sympathisers ffs.
