The official story - he was beaten to death with a fire extinguisher: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/08/us/politics/police-officer-killed-capitol.html
Interestingly, the officer was a Trump supporter: https://nypost.com/2021/01/10/what-the-left-wants-to-ignore-about-slain-capitol-police-officer/
No footage has been found of anybody beating him or a police officer to death with a fire extinguisher (at least I've not found any), but someone threw one and it hit someone in the head. It seems UK Daily Mail figures this is him being hit, but I'm not sure it's even Sicknick as the person seems younger, fatter and seems like a protestor without a helmet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PZrb_b2BAY&feature=youtu.be
UK Daily Mail says he was struck: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9135979/Family-killed-Capitol-Police-officer-Brian-Sicknick-release-heartbreaking-statement.html
YET, there's claims that this is him being pulled down and beaten, which is not possible to be the same guy (starts at 0:13 watch as someone gets pulled down/beaten near bottom of screen, they take helmet and shield) https://sg.news.yahoo.com/amphtml/scenes-mayhem-pro-trump-protesters-003754604.html
Another angle. no fire extinguisher anywhere near - https://i.maga.host/xJK0hhq.png
However, Brian's brother Ken told ProPublica: "He texted me last night and said, ‘I got pepper-sprayed twice,’ and he was in good shape. Apparently he collapsed in the Capitol and they resuscitated him using CPR." But the day following that text, the family received news from the hospital that Brian was suffering from a blood clot and he had a stroke. The only thing keeping him alive was a ventilator: https://www.propublica.org/article/officer-brian-sicknick-capitol
They say Sicknick had texted them Wednesday night to say that while he had been pepper-sprayed, he was in good spirits. The text arrived hours after a mob’s assault on the Capitol had left more than 50 officers injured and five people dead." According to the narrative, he died before the text got sent, which is weird. But given the crowd it could have just come through late. BUT if he wasn't dead, then there's not 5 people who died but 4. “He texted me last night [Wednesday] and said, ‘I got pepper-sprayed twice,’ and he was in good shape,” said Ken Sicknick, his brother, as the family drove toward Washington. “Apparently he collapsed in the Capitol and they resuscitated him using CPR.” But the day after that text exchange [Thursday], the family got word that Brian Sicknick had a blood clot and had had a stroke; a ventilator was keeping him alive." Apparently the next line addresses it "As apparently premature news of Sicknick’s death spread in law enforcement circles, the U.S. Capitol Police Department remained silent," And then it comes out he may have died from a medical condition. “Authorities believe Sicknick's death was driven by a medical condition,” ABC News reported, citing “sources familiar with the matter.” https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/officer-brian-sicknick-report-medical-condition
Now it comes out that the body was apparently turned over to the family without an autopsy: After Officer Brian Sicknick died, the conventional wisdom was that he was killed by a fire extinguisher blow to his head. First, assuming that a blow killed him, why has nobody been charged with his murder? And, if this is a presumed murder, then why has no legal autopsy been performed by a coroner/medical examiner to determine the cause of death. (His body was apparently turned over to his family for burial.) Second, there are conflicting news reports that indicate that Officer Sicknick died of a stress related medical emergency such as a heart attack or stroke. In either case, an autopsy would be done to determine which one of the two mechanisms of death are most likely. The lack of reported autopsy findings is strange. http://thebullelephant.com/the-curious-nature-of-conventional-wisdom/
Does anybody here have any new material on Brian Sicknick's death that I've not posted above already?
