Episode notes
Multiple Shots After Disarming
- After Preddy's gun was removed, agents fired ten shots in five seconds at his disarmed body.
- Many agents later appeared unaware the firearm had already been taken from him.
Visual Evidence Challenges Safety Claim
- The Department of Homeland Security framed Preddy as the aggressor, but video shows he posed no clear threat when shot.
- Visual evidence undermines the federal claim of an imminent danger justifying lethal force.
Preddy's Background As A Community Nurse
- Ernesto Londoño reports Preddy was a VA nurse respected in his community and had no criminal record.
- He was a licensed gun owner and federal employee, not previously known as violent.
