11 seconds before the shooting, Mr. Pretti is restrained by multiple agents. Still from video by Philophon via Reddit.The New York Times.
Greg Bovino, head of ICE, says the agents who killed a man on a public street in front of witnesses are the "real victims" and the dead man is to blame for his own murder as a peaceful citizen behaving legally. If Bovino had been around in the seventies, he'd probably have announced that poor Ted Bundy was just a hapless victim of all those nasty girls.
Even though the agents' faces were covered to conceal them from witnesses and cameras, a genuine, standard investigation into the murder would be able to determine the identity of the shooter(s). They would preserve the scene, collect evidence following strict procedures, identify whose gun fired the fatal bullets, who had GSR on their clothes, etc. But the perpetrator is unlikely to be named, because they didn't start a proper investigation at the crime scene, the evidence will have been mishandled, and all the agents will lie despite being caught on video from multiple angles; besides, DHS wants more of this.
They want you to be paralyzed with fear. They want a populace too terrified to complain. They want the perfect police state.
