Alex Pretti’s Parents Accuse Officials of Shielding His Killers: “Ignored Us, Misled Us”

At an October 27 press conference, the parents of Alex Pretti, 37, a nurse killed by federal agents in Minneapolis on January 24, said officials “ignored us, misled us and shielded Alex’s killers.” They point to the Justice Department and U.S. Attorney Dan Rosen, who they say met them only in July and gave no status; DOJ says family contact normally comes later in a case. Minnesota officials say federal authorities stopped sharing information with state investigators. No charges have been reported.
