Emerging story

News sources have announced that two more Capitol Police officers who were on duty during the January 6 insurrection have died by suicide. This brings the total number of suicides within the Capitol Police since the insurrection up to four. As this news was breaking, a number of people began insinuating on social media that the officers were actually murdered. 

These users suspect that the culprits behind the murders were operatives from within the government or a government agency. Others have not blamed a particular culprit and instead stated that the deaths were no coincidence. Posts claiming or suggesting that the officers were murdered have gained hundreds and, in at least one instance, thousands of interactions.
