• Family rejects official narrative — demands transparency
Alex Pretti’s family says the Trump administration’s accounts of the shooting — particularly claims he “posed a threat” — are “sickening lies”. They insist video evidence shows he was not holding a weapon when agents confronted him and call for release of all footage, including bystander video and body-cam recordings.

• Multiple angles of body-cam footage exist
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed investigators are reviewing body-worn camera footage from several agents involved in the incident. Family and public pressure are growing to make this evidence public so the full sequence of events can be independently evaluated.

• Contradictory visuals and narratives
Bystander videos circulating online show Pretti holding a phone — not a gun — and suggest he may have been trying to help others before being pepper-sprayed and tackled by federal agents. These clips have fueled calls by the family and advocates for full public release of all footage to clarify what really happened.

• Official reviews confirm shots fired by federal agents
A government review disclosed to Congress confirms that two federal officers fired their weapons at Pretti during an attempted arrest. The case is under internal review, but the timing and content of released footage remain restricted.

• Political and civic backlash intensifies
Minnesota officials, including the governor, have demanded federal agents leave the state and called for broader scrutiny of the operation that led to Pretti’s death. The shooting has become a flashpoint in national debates over federal law enforcement authority, immigration policy, and use of force.

• Public response and protest
The killing sparked protests and vigils in Minneapolis and nationwide, with community members demanding accountability and transparency — especially release of all videos showing the confrontation.

• Family and public frustration over information access
Pretti’s parents said they struggled to get basic details from law enforcement and had to confirm their son’s death through the medical examiner’s office because federal agencies did not proactively communicate.

• Division among political figures
Some political voices defend the actions of federal agents, while others — including former leaders and commentators — sharply criticize the shooting and echo the family’s call for full evidence disclosure.

📌 Why this matters to the “truth” narrative

The core of the family’s demand is that only full public disclosure of all video evidence — both body-cams and any footage Pretti may have been recording — can resolve conflicting accounts about what happened, especially the contested moments before the fatal shots were fired. The “7th minute” reference in your title could relate to a specific point in the circulating footage that many viewers and analysts say contradicts official claims — but official footage has not yet been publicly released.
