RIP, Officer Sicknick, Who Died Defending Democracy By Bob Hennelly | January 8, 2021, 7:18 pm | in Edward Edwards
In the immediate aftermath of the successful storming of the Capitol by thousands of angry Trump supporters there’s been much speculation about how it was that the very seat of our democracy was left so vulnerable to an attack that resulted in the murder of U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, a 42-year-old New Jersey native.
“Officer Sicknick was a South River native, and proud graduate of Middlesex County Vocational Technical Schools in East Brunswick,” said New Jersey Senate President Stephen Sweeney in a statement of condolence. “Before serving with distinction with the Capitol Police, Staff Sergeant Sicknick bravely served six years with the New Jersey National Guard, including twice being deployed to the Middle East.”
