He died of a stroke over 24 hours after the incident at the capitol. You don't even have a basic understanding of how he died there is no point continuing this conversation with you.
Meh. He collapsed within 8 hours, with the cause almost certainly being the strokes that ultimately killed him. Direct medical intervention kept him alive for some time afterwards.Sicknick text-messaged his brother on Wednesday night after the riot, reporting that he had been twice attacked with pepper spray and was "in good shape".[20] Shortly before 10 p.m., however, nearly 8 hours after he was sprayed,[19] and some time after he had returned to his division office,[32] Sicknick collapsed.[a] Sicknick was taken to a hospital in the D.C. area.
