Is Fellow saying that Pretti's gun was fired by the police, which then made them nervous so they shot him?
Yeah. I've seen it suggested on the threadiverse that it may be what happened as well. Seems like the "best case" scenario is that they killed him because they legitimately believe he was shooting them. Which is a wild belief to think the guy you are actively looking at and can see does not have a gun in-hand, is not where the sound came from, and is in no position to fire back is shooting at you instead of assuming its one of the like dozen buddies you are with that all are pointing guns at random people's faces or even a random bystander and to think firing into a crowd of your buddies is a reasonable (and to ignore that all of the top brass is actively defending the behavior, so its clearly intended behavior of ICE, not a fluke).
They're saying that the model of handgun allegedly taken from the victim (Sig sauer p320) while common and used by law enforcement, has a known tendency to fire by itself and somehow that must have happened in this situation.
I haven't followed the forensics of this story but given there are multiple camera angles of people in very close proximity , wouldn't it be known if there was a shot gone off before the goon pulled out his gun? I didn't get the impression that it was one shot, then a pause, then several more. But several in very quick succession.
