Donald Trump is being blamed for the death of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who was assaulted during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot.
WASHINGTON — Donald Trump is being blamed for the death of, who was assaulted during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot, in a lawsuit that claims the former president is responsible because he riled up his supporters with false election claims and calls to take action.
That “cost” Sicknick his life, Sandra Garza, Sicknick’s former girlfriend and representative of his estate, said in a complaint filed in Washington Thursday. It’s the latest civil lawsuit seeking to hold Trump legally responsible for the violence at the Capitol. He’s previously argued that he’s immune against being sued over his words and actions in connection with the events of Jan. 6. A federal appeals court is set to weigh in on the merits of that defense later this year.
