Futurism
Last week, social and news media was abuzz with allegations that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers had access to a shadowy database full of information on protestors.
During a confrontation with ICE agents, two legal observers had their faces scanned by a federal officer to include in a vague database.
“We have a nice little database, and now you’re considered domestic terrorists,” the ICE agent said at the time.
According to the publication’s source, ICE already had a treasure trove of personal details about Pretti before his death on Saturday.
As the story goes, info on Pretti’s physical identification was collected following a run-in a week prior to his death, with another gaggle of ICE officers who broke one of his ribs during the encounter.
