Original Note:
No officers were killed. The medical examiner found Sicknick died of natural causes which means “a disease alone causes death. If death is hastened by an injury, the manner of death is not considered natural.” Four other officers committed suicide days to months later. https://www.uscp.gov/media-center/press-releases/medical-examiner-finds-uscp-officer-brian-sicknick-died-natural-causes https://dcist.com/story/21/04/19/d-c-medical-examiner-rules-capitol-police-officer-brian-sicknick-had-two-strokes-died-of-natural-causes/ https://www.factcheck.org/2021/11/how-many-died-as-a-result-of-capitol-riot/
