DHS alleged Pretti was an unlawful gun carrier aiming to massacre law enforcement,carrying two magazines without ID.
Minnesota records directly counter this:
Valid Permit: Pretti held a legal Minnesota permit for both concealed and open carry,no violation.
Clean Record: Only minor traffic tickets; no criminal history disqualifying him from gun ownership.
Video evidence (reviewed by Reuters, NYT, WSJ) shows he was holding a cell phone, not brandishing a gun when tackled; agents fired 10 shots in 5 seconds after pinning him.
This is nonsense and horrific to the core,may his soul rest in peace.I hope he gets justice!
