>In the Pretti shooting, a Sig Sauer pistol the ICU nurse legally possessed was taken from his belt holster by a federal agent as several others dogpiled on top of him. Even after viewing multiple videos of the incident and speaking with other law enforcement officials, it is unclear whether Pretti’s gun misfired or if something else caused CBP SRT operator Raymundo Gutierrez and Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa to shoot him several times.
What is clear is that the CBP agents had already taken Pretti's legally carried firearm from him at this point. So it is no difference if the CBP employee caused the gun they took to fire or if all shots were directly into the back of Pretti as he lay on the ground. In both cases it was a murder caused entirely by their actions and stupidity.
And there still has not been any investigation, any indictment, or a fair trial. We are not living in a nation of laws. This terrible CBP "training" by the violent criminal David Norman this wired article highlights is part of it.
