The Sonoma County Sheriff's Office must comply with subpoenas issued by the county's civilian oversight board as part of a whistleblower investigation into alleged misconduct, a state appeals court ruled Thursday.

A California Division of Occupational Safety and Health investigation into the July 18 blast resulted in eight citations and more than $350,000 in fines, according to records from the state agency reviewed by The Times.

Officers responding to the scene found a 20-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the head and an 18-year-old woman with gunshot wounds to the head and chest.

The ATF's bullet analysis report has been kept private, but attorneys have cited snippets in other public filings that say the results were inconclusive.

A total of 10 gunshots rang out from the ICE officers, leaving Pretti lying supine and motionless in the middle of the street. He was declared dead at the scene. Video of the incident appeared to contradict the Department of Homeland Security narrative that Pretti approached US Border Patrol officers with a 9 mm semi-automatic handgun, and that the officers were forced to shoot in self-defense.
