Original Note:
NPR, relying on a self-serving statement by capitol police, reported erroneously that Sicknick “was injured during the siege.” Sicknick had told his brother Jan 6 that he “got pepper-sprayed twice” but was in good shape.¹ He died from a stroke, not from an injury.² ¹ https://www.propublica.org/article/officer-brian-sicknick-capitol ² https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Brian_Sicknick
