>Brian Sicknick, a 42-year-old responding Capitol Police officer, was pepper-sprayed during the riot, and had two thromboembolic strokes the next day, after which he was placed on life support, and soon died.
>In the immediate aftermath of the attack, some members of Congress and press reports included these two suicides in the number of reported casualties, for a total of seven deaths. In July, two more members of law enforcement who responded to the attack died by suicide.
- sennight 5y agoYeah, so murder by... bullying? Guilt tripping? The shamelessness of the lying is impressive.
- kthejoker2 5y agoWe can quibble over what is a "murder", but assigning blame of a suicide due to PTSD on the cause of the trauma is not a new concept.
- sennight 5y agoPTSD so strong as to almost instantly result in suicide? Wow. Being an actual combat vet, I can tell you with authority that your time would be better spent looking up "moral injury" instead of researching definitions for PTSD that fit your usage. That wouldn't fit the lie, though.
