“On January 7, 2021, a United States Capitol Police (USCP) officer, Brian Sicknick, died after suffering two strokes the day after he responded to an attack on the U.S. Capitol. The District of Columbia chief medical examiner found that Sicknick had died from stroke, classifying his death as natural and additionally commented that “all that transpired played a role in his condition”, a decision which was criticized by some expert neurologists, who have stated that stress from the attack may have very well caused the stroke.”
“Multiple media outlets reported Sicknick’s death was due to injuries he sustained, but months later the Washington, D.C. medical examiner reported there were no injuries to Sicknick. Within a day after his death, the U.S. Capitol Police and the U.S. Justice Department each said that his death was due to injuries from the attack.”
“The medical examiner found no evidence that Sicknick had an allergic reaction to the chemical spray. Prosecutors later said on April 27 that the chemical spray was pepper spray. On January 28, 2023, Khater was sentenced to almost seven years in prison for assaulting an officer with a chemical irritant.”
“Sicknick was an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election, but those who had met him “said his political views did not align neatly with one political party”: he opposed Trump’s impeachment, supported gun control, opposed animal cruelty and was concerned about the national debt.”

Dying from a stroke after a stressful event is possible.
Yes, dying from a stroke after a stressful day is possible, but, considering how important his death was for the Deep State narrative of violent insurrection, and, considering how his death was (extremely rarely) pre-reported, and his service was also extremely unusually held in the Capitol, and his body was cremated (destroying any evidence), it is also possible that he was murdered by the Deep State as a sacrificial pawn to advance the insurrection narrative and seal the case against Trump and the J6 protestors. Consider, for example, how persistent the reports of his death due to bludgeoning by a fire extinguisher were, after he himself posted that he was “fine” after the event.
In order to advance a particular hypothesis, there is a duty for your hypothesis to explain facts and circumstances around the event. Furthermore, unless you can convincingly refute alternative hypotheses, those other hypotheses have to remain as open possibilities.
I could add that the Deep State isn’t at all averse to committing murder to advance its interests, considering the treatment of the officer who killed Ashli Babbitt, so you can’t just say “that’s ridiculous, they would never do that” regarding murdering Mr. Sicknick.
