At least two Border Patrol agents involved with killing Pretti

wore body cameras. CNN

Applegrove: not that it isn't obvious what happened already. ICE doesn't wear body cams but it was Border Patrol agents who killed Alex Pretti.

my thoughts would be what if the Border Patrol's cameras actually caught ICE committing the murder. Those cameras would have been pointing straight at the scene of the murderers.

Maybe?

Thank god state and local agencies are conducting their own investigations. Though the scene was intentionally compromised by the feds.
