Neither of these things say "he did not die as a result of injuries sustained in the riots".
> "According to one law enforcement official, medical examiners did not find signs that the officer sustained any blunt force trauma, so investigators believe that early reports that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher are not true."
No, the ME, who is yet to release finalized verdict, stated that the officer did not die "from blunt force trauma".
> that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher
Well no. He wasn't. He died the next day in hospital.
From a hemorrhagic stroke. Which could have been caused or exacerbated by non-lethal beating.
You literally commented that there is video of the officer being struck by a fire extinguisher.
“The statement that it had not been determined that blunt force trauma specifically caused Officer Sicknick's death doesn't make the attack BS - there's video footage of him being hit with one.”
Does the word “one” not refer to a fire extinguisher? Did I fail to comprehend your claim?
Assuming the video you refer to does show the fire extinguisher attack, then law enforcement needs your help. Investigators are trying to find out if the officer was attacked and who did it. Please share the video with them instead of arguing with me on the internet!
Since you said: "The statement that it had not been determined that blunt force trauma specifically caused Officer Sicknick's death doesn't make the attack BS - there's video footage of him being hit with one."
"him" must unambiguously mean Officer Sicknick according to you.
From your source.
"It’s unclear if the cop who was plunked was Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, 42."
Oh, comprehension.
Also, the article you cite is over a month old and much newer information is now available. Including the statement that:
"Authorities have reviewed video and photographs that show Sicknick engaging with rioters amid the siege but have yet to identify a moment in which he suffered his fatal injuries, law enforcement officials familiar with the matter said."
But who knows. Maybe investigators have never heard of the NY Post. Make sure you send them a link to that article and video ASAP! You really cracked the case!
