Officer Brian Sicknick died of natural causes day after Capitol invasion, medical examiner rules - The Deadliest Peaceful Protest in History got even less deadly.


Police officer Brian Sicknick suffered strokes and died of natural causes a day after he grappled with a riotous mob of former President Donald Trump's supporters during the Jan. 6 invasion of the U.S. Capitol, Washington's chief medical examiner ruled.

The ruling, released Monday by the office of Chief Medical Examiner Francisco Diaz, could complicate efforts to prosecute two men who were charged last month with assaulting Sicknick with a chemical spray.


The office noted that the 42-year-old Sicknick was "sprayed with a chemical substance outside the U.S. Capitol" during the invasion at about 2:20 p.m.

At around 10 p.m. that night, Sicknick collapsed at the Capitol and was transported to a hospital, according to the ruling. He died there at 9:30 p.m. the following evening.

Sicknick's official cause of death was "acute brainstem and cerebellar infarcts due to acute basilar artery thrombosis," Diaz's office determined.

The manner of death — the circumstances surrounding Sicknick's passing — was "natural." That term is used when a death is caused solely by a disease, and is not hastened by an injury, according to the ruling.

But Diaz in an interview with The Washington Post noted Sicknick's role in confronting the rioters hours before his collapse, saying, "all that transpired played a role in his condition."


Still, Diaz told the newspaper that Sicknick's autopsy found no evidence that the officer had an allergic reaction to the chemical irritants sprayed at him during the riot.

Libby-libs are absolutely seething over this apparently.
 
How convenient that the medical examiner is able to do an interview to downplay his own fucking report.

A report, might I add, would have been available for fucking months, but surpressed for the "Muh Insurrection" narrative.

Wow look, the only act of violence that led to death was done by a police officer against an unarmed woman but hey, that was "justified". No you can't know the name of said officer, unlike every other fucking police shooting ever.
 
Holy shit. Didn't think an ME would have the balls to declare this a "natural death" after George Floyd was called a "homicide" despite everything to the contrary.

This ME is going to get epstein'd.
I pity the resident of their former house(a defense witness had blood thrown on a previous residence and a pig's head left on the porch but yeah the right is evil).

Called it.
And the lugenpresse narrative woven around The Great Unscheduled Capitol Tour of 2021 falls into a smoking ruin.
Time to edit Wikipedia's longer than 9/11 1/6 article to remove Switnick, source it, then see how quickly the edit gets reverted.
 
Most amazing part of the story of this guy is seeing people react to the actual picture of the "beating", which consisted of a mini-fire extinguisher bonking the guy on his helmet. Looked smaller than the size of a 2 liter soda bottle. They could look at the pictures and short videos where no damage seemed done and imagine in their minds they were witnessing a savage beating that resulted in a guy dying.

Not only do people not need evidence to believe wild stories, but they can stare at evidence that they're wrong and imagine it's something else entirely.

"They are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern [alluding to Pavlov]. You can not change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior."
