Dr. G's Body Language Course:
https://www.drgexplains.com/offers/CEnNLKFa
In this video, Dr. G, a clinical and forensic psychologist and body language expert, delves deep into the behavior, body language, and psychology surrounding the Border Patrol shooting of Alex Pretti, using only publicly available footage from the events leading up to the shooting. While the actual shooting itself is not shown, the analysis focuses on the tense moments beforehand, examining nonverbal cues, movement patterns, and behavioral escalation visible on video to better understand how this encounter unfolded.
Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old ICU nurse and licensed gun owner, was shot and killed by U.S. Border Patrol agents during an immigration enforcement operation that quickly sparked national debate and protests. Conflicting narratives emerged almost immediately, with official statements claiming Pretti posed a lethal threat, while circulating video footage shows a far more complex and chaotic scene. Dr. G breaks down posture, gestures, spatial positioning, stress responses, and crowd dynamics to explore how perception, fear, and split-second decision-making may have shaped the outcome.
The aftermath of the Alex Pretti shooting by U.S. Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis continues to unfold, with new video analysis, protests, legal actions, and political reactions dominating today’s coverage: multiple bystander videos reviewed by media outlets show Pretti — a 37-year-old ICU nurse and lawful gun owner — holding what appears to be a phone, not a weapon, before he was pepper-sprayed, wrestled to the ground, and fatally shot, raising major questions about the federal narrative that he approached with a gun, and prompting critics including Minneapolis leaders to call the official account “nonsense” and demand accountability. A federal judge granted a restraining order requiring the Department of Homeland Security to preserve all evidence related to the killing amid a lawsuit by Minnesota authorities, while protests have spread locally and in other states against federal immigration enforcement practices and public figures on both sides of the partisan divide are weighing in on transparency, training, and policy implications.
This video takes an evidence-based approach to use-of-force psychology, human perception under extreme stress, and the limitations of video evidence in rapidly unfolding situations. By focusing on what can and cannot be reliably inferred from behavior alone, Dr. G provides a grounded behavioral analysis aimed at adding clarity to a highly emotional and polarized incident.
