The suit alleges that Trump incited his supporters to commit violence on that day, which led to an assault on Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick by two men.

Sicknick, 42, died on January 7 after having two strokes. Washington DC’s chief medical examiner said in April 2021 that the officer died of natural causes brought on by his illness.

The lawsuit was filed by Sicknick’s longtime partner, Sandra Garza. It quotes the medical examiner attributing “all that transpired” on Jan. 6 to playing “a role in his condition.”

Garza is also alleging that Trump’s “campaign of lies” had a 'significant role' in the death of Sicknick.

The lawsuit is asking for $10 million in damages from Trump and $10 million each from the two men, Julian Khater and George Tanios, who were convicted for Sicknick's assault, NBC News reported.

They showed a retraction at the bottom of the screen for fifteen seconds...once (likely. Don’t really know. I wouldn’t watch CNN/MSNBC commit sepuku with a letter opener).

The entire point is more red meat for the useful idiots.

We will now hear and read, forever, that Trump is a murderer.

That is the only desired result of this suit.

Trump should file a cross-complaint against Ray Epps and Pelosi. Discovery would be... aweswome.

"The lawsuit was filed by Sicknick’s longtime partner, Sandra Garza."

They weren't together at the time of his death. They had split the July before he died...six months prior. She has no skin in the game unless she's now banging his anti-Trump brother.

So who’s funding this farce? There is no way any attorney would take this on contingency. No standing. No cause of action. No proximate cause of injuries and death.
