Alex Pretti’s death has become a flashpoint because it collides with so many fault lines at once: immigration enforcement, gun rights, police force and the quiet lives shattered in an instant. To DHS, he was an armed “subject” who resisted. To his family and colleagues, he was a 37-year-old ICU nurse, a lawful gun owner with no serious record, who once cared for veterans in crisis and never came home from a Saturday morning.On the street where he fell, at least 200 protesters gathered as tear gas drifted through a neighborhood still remembering earlier clashes with federal agents. Officials point to two magazines and no ID; the police chief points to public video and says, simply, “The video speaks for itself.” Between those versions lies a void that only a transparent investigation can fill — and a community unwilling to let this shooting fade into silence.
