Capitol rioter dies by suicide because of ‘broken heart’ over case

A Capitol rioter died by suicide while awaiting sentencing — dying from a “broken heart” over his case and because “the justice system killed his spirit and his zest for life,” according to kin.

Matthew Perna, who pled guilty in December to four charges related to the attempted insurrection, killed himself Friday.

“The constant delays in hearings, and postponements dragged out for over a year. Because of this, Matt’s heart broke and his spirit died,” says his obituary in The Herald, a local newspaper in Sharon, Pa.

“Matt did not have a hateful bone in his body. He embraced people of all races, income brackets and beliefs, never once berating anyone for having different views,” the obit added.

Perna, 37, drove to Washington on Jan. 6 to attend former President Donald Trump’s rally and later entered the US Capitol, where he was caught on video wearing a red “Make America Great Again” hoodie and chanting “USA!” court records show.

I know it won’t happen, but if there’s justice in this life, let it come down on these tyrants!

RIP. But he shouldn’t have given Pelosi the satisfaction.

The only justice in life (these days) is justice you make yourself. The Legal system is a joke and there is no rule of law anymore.

Meanwhile that scumbag is financing the invasion of the Ukraine to the tune of $70 million a day by buying Russian oil because he sanctioned US energy, and nobody says ANYTHING.

Breaks my heart that he lost all hope. Just what these bastards wanted him (and us) to do.

They will get theirs, hopefully soon. I think the Biden disaster is finally waking up a lot of people who are going to demand justice. Eventually the truth will come out

Chanting “USA” is now insurrection?

I’m going to be sick.

This just tears me up. Thank you, Patriot Perna. To those of you who persecuted this good American, may the flames of hell lick at you for eternity.

Yep, this is their goal, “resistance is futile”.

Taking your own life is not what patriots do. You fight and keep on fighting.

I’m sorry but I hate suiciders.

They make me mad.

Yes, sad for the loss of life, but mad for what they did.

He was not a rioter, but he was treated as if he was one.
