Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti:
"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends
and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the
Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world.
Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.
I do not throw around the 'hero' term lightly. However, his last thought
and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by
the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not
holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs.
He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above
his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while
being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."
