4th Capitol Cop Commits Suicide


"The deaths of DeFreytag and Hashida bring the number of suicides among officers who responded to the riot to four. Capitol Police Officer Howard Liebengood died by suicide days after the attack, with D.C. police officer Jeffrey Smith dying by suicide several weeks later. Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick died of strokes a day after the riot, the D.C. medical examiner found in April, noting “all that transpired played a role in his condition.”

138. That’s the number of Capitol Police and D.C. Metropolitan Police officers who were injured in the attack, according to the New York Times – which doesn’t account for the many others who face post-traumatic stress disorder or other mental health complications as a result.

Four law enforcement officers testified last week about their harrowing, and in some cases, near deadly experiences responding to the riot. “That day continues to be a constant trauma for us literally every day, whether because [of] our physical or emotional injuries or both,” Capitol Police sergeant Aquilino Gonell told a select committee investigating the attack."

Hopefully, the domestic terrorists and those who incited them will be held accountable.

700+ cops were injured last summer, 25 people died, and they tried to overthrow the government too:

Not trying to ignore January, because fuck those people too, but last summer was worse in EVERY WAY and we aren't allowed to acknowledge it and we hear about January every fucking day. I am OUT on January. I can't listen to the fake pearl clutching anymore - I'm not talking about the cops and politicians who went through it - but liberals and the media feigning shock and outrage.
