    The evidence is the 10 videos all showing the same thing. ICE is guilty of murder. The videos are all over the Internet, what could they destroy? Other than the name of the murderer there isn’t anymore needed to convict.

      Do you know the identity of the shooter? Cause they’re not just going to tell you.

        Out of all the angles I’ve seen, there only appears to be one agent that shoots him.

          Look for more angles I guess. There’s at least 2.

        The firearm they claim to have taken off him. The photo they posted is old and literally off Google Images.

          The CNN video shows them disarming him and it not being in the beating area when the murder happens

          https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/25/us/video/minneapolis-ice-shooting-alex-pretti-visual-analysis-digvid

          That picture might not be that gun, but there is proof they should have a gun in their possession.

            Hoooooly shit.

            Ok. Yeah now it’s clear. What’s also clear is this was a fucking execution. (As if this wasn’t obvious enough from the first footage that came out.)

            Absolutely disgusting.

          Only one agent shot him.

          The debate is whether the first shot was the gun they took off him misfiring.

            Bullshit. Video evidence shows at least two, and possibly three murderers.

            Not misfiring, a misfire is a malfunction of the weapon or ammo. This would be the ICE agent incompetently discharging the weapon while disarming him.

            Ah! Ok. No I don’t think that’s what I saw. They pulled something off his back, and THEN the ICE agent pulled out THEIR gun and shot the man. That’s pretty clear. The victim never even touched his own gun.

            At least that’s what I saw in the videos.

            There was no need to shoot him. They had wrestled him to the ground. He wasn’t a threat. This is absolutely an abuse of power and should be considered as a murder. There’s no doubt in my mind.

                Maybe he was misinformed himself, and the attitude you’re presenting isn’t going to change his, or anyone else’s mind.

            Dude. The video only clearly shows one ICE agent shooting the victim.

            Accepting that as fact doesn’t make us fascist sympathisers ffs.

      Photos of the scene, work timesheets showing who is there, witness information…

      I also would love to see charges filed immediately, but there’s a reason they collect all the evidence first. Yes, we all saw it, but a good state prosecutor has to know at this point the federal Trump DOJ and DHS will certainly remove the case to federal court (even if it proceeds under state law) and will try to intervene to dismiss. They will pull out every dirty trick possible to avoid a finding of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. That includes sabotaging evidence solely in their custody or claiming the prosecutor did not do due diligence and then produce some magically exonerating new evidence.

      If we want the charges to stick, we need to box in the DOJ and DHS.
