Intelligence Analysis: Disinformation Campaign Targets Minneapolis Shooter's Legal History

Recent intelligence indicates a coordinated disinformation effort surrounding Raymundo Gutierrez, one of the agents involved in the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Our analysis confirms that claims regarding Gutierrez's conviction for attempted rape are categorically false. No criminal record or legal proceedings matching this allegation exist in any verified database. The narrative appears designed to exploit public outrage following the Pretti incident, potentially to undermine official investigations or manipulate public perception. Such tactics align with known patterns of information warfare, where fabricated personal histories are weaponized to discredit individuals involved in high-profile cases. Law enforcement sources maintain that Gutierrez's background check revealed no disqualifying offenses prior to his service. This incident underscores the critical need for verified intelligence in emotionally charged situations, as unsubstantiated claims can compromise both judicial processes and public trust. The Bureau continues to monitor this developing information landscape.
