Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez are both officers with Customs and Border Protection, ProPublica reports
Government documents have identified the two federal officers who fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis as Jesus Ochoa, a border patrol agent, and Raymundo Gutierrez, an officer with Customs and Border Protection (CBP), according to ProPublica.
According to those records, Ochoa, 43, and Gutierrez, 35, were the agents who fired their weapons during the confrontation last weekend that resulted in Pretti’s death.
The shooting sparked widespread demonstrations and renewed demands for criminal inquiries into federal immigration enforcement actions. Immediately following Pretti’s killing, the Trump administration repeatedly pushed false claims about the shooting.
Records reportedly show that Ochoa joined CBP in 2018 as a border patrol agent, while Gutierrez began working for the agency in 2014.
So it’s almost like years of training and experience had no effect on being trigger happy.
Dems in seats wanted more money for ice training that they claimed would have prevented these executions.
-we all knew it was bullshit. But now we have receipts.
Good’s killer was also a long serving ICE agent. Dems want visibility on the hint that they could be doing something, maybe. They don’t care about the actual facts on the ground. They need a third way, no matter what.
