The Trump administration filed a legal motion Monday opposing a federal judge’s order preventing them from tampering with evidence related to Pretti’s death, The New York Times reported. While it’s not uncommon for the Trump administration to oppose judges’ orders against them, this case seems particularly unnecessary—and suspicious.
In a signed declaration, BCA Commissioner Drew Evans said the Minneapolis Police Department had requested his agency’s presence at the scene, but that when his agents arrived, DHS officers turned them away. DHS also did not respond to subsequent requests to access the scene.
The BCA has historically handled investigations into shootings involving federal law enforcement, and typically done so without federal involvement, according to Evans.
Meanwhile, what we know about Pretti’s senseless killing is limited to the footage captured by multiple eyewitnesses. Video from several angles of the incident showed that Pretti was tackled by multiple federal agents after he approached a protester who’d been pepper sprayed. When the agents realized the man they’d beaten and pinned to the ground was armed, they took his gun, and two of the agents shot him roughly 10 times.
DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin confirmed Monday that the deadly incident was captured by body cameras worn by multiple DHS agents involved in the shooting. It’s not clear whether this footage will be released to the public.
