   According to Jeanne Massey, a neighbor, Pretti was part of a “Signal ICE”   
   group chat of volunteers who organized a sophisticated operation to track ICE   
   activity in real time and alert each other when agents were in the area.   
      
   These folks patrol streets, blow whistles, alert residents, and film   
   operations to disrupt arrests.   
      
   That puts him not on the sidelines but plugged into the very network that   
   coordinated responses to federal enforcement operations.   
      
   Mother Jones profiled the group just last week.   
      
   “A new activist twist on neighborhood watch is taking shape in Minneapolis   
   and other cities under occupation by federal immigration agents: ICE Watch,”   
   the outlet reported.   
      
   “As Immigration and Customs Enforcement personnel drive around these cities,   
   they’re often tailed by people in the neighborhoods. The idea is to make   
   sure witnesses are present for any immigration arrest, to catch incidents on   
   video, and to protest—   
   or at least get the detainee’s name.”   
      
   The article described the “ICE watchers” as “passionate, determined, and   
   just about everywhere—and ICE is getting frustrated.”
