Original Note:
No officers were killed in the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot. 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.” 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/
