Rest in Peace Alex Jeffrey Pretti🙏🏾 The VA ICU Nurses send him off right 💔

Elderly U.S. citizen and business owner who tried to show ICE agents that the employees they were targeting had the proper papers. They attacked him, resulting in multiple broken ribs, elbow injuries and a traumatic brain injury for the 79 year old.
