Following the killing of Alex Pretti by federal agents over the weekend,
the cell phone Pretti was holding moments before his death
has disappeared into federal custody.
The New York Times reports that the FBI initially collected evidence
from the shooting, including Pretti’s handgun and phone,
but has turned over that evidence to Homeland Security Investigations,
a division of the Department of Homeland Security,
which is now handling the investigation into Pretti’s death.
Pretti’s family told the Associated Press on Monday
that they have no idea where the phone is, and his father, Michael Pretti,
said they have yet to be contacted by federal law enforcement.
But perhaps most troubling: officials told CBS News
that there was no documented chain of custody for Pretti’s gun.
Raising the question of whether evidence has been improperly handled (or footage erased).
The Department of Homeland Security has refused to publicly confirm
whether it has the video he was recording.
The phone and Alex's gun
are probably in the same filing cabinet as the Epstein files.
I don't know if any US readers have updates on this situation?

Titus
