Officer who responded to US Capitol attack is third to die by suicide (theguardian.com)

Is it? I can see how unexpectedly defending the capitol against a sea of protesters ostensibly trying to overthrow the results of an election would be traumatic. Soldiers get PTSD from their combat experiences, it's completely reasonable for a cop to have the same thing.

It is very odd. to the point where it looks staged (Epstein kind of staged)

I wouldn't wish a job of being an officer upon anyone these days. I can only imagine what law enforcement officers' family members and loved ones are going through on daily basis

Police officers have been a recent target of a nationwide smear campaign ("pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon,") and now they are a target for the terrorist group that attacked capitol, the group that supposedly came out of a social circle that was suppose to support the system and traditional institutions. Cognitive dissonance is big with this one.

More likely they're being killed by the deep state to preserve the "insurgency" narrative.
