Glenn Close Criticizes Federal Agents’ Actions After Second Fatal Shooting in Minneapolis

Glenn Close condemned federal agents for killing ICU nurse Alex Pretti during an immigration operation, highlighting concerns over democratic erosion and misuse of force.

  • On January 24, Glenn Close criticized the Trump administration after federal agents shot and killed 37-year-old ICU nurse Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.
  • Federal officials said agents were conducting a 'targeted operation against an illegal alien' and contend Pretti approached with a phone before shots were fired, while video shows him helping a woman.
  • Condemning federal actions, Close said she was `outraged and sickened` by the Trump regime and warned that `the great American body politic is stirring, waking up`.
  • President Donald Trump said his administration was reviewing everything about the Minneapolis shooting, criticized local officials and Democrats, and said immigration enforcement officers would leave Minneapolis at some point.
  • Close warned that aggressive federal enforcement could inflame volatile conditions and embolden armed civilians, arguing many Americans store weapons and enforcement actions could give them an excuse to act.
