Investigators struggle to build murder case in death of Capitol Police officer
- ruined 6y agothey're not just going to charge everyone involved? that's how felony murder usually works in dc
- AndrewBissell 6y agoIf you read the article, they are having trouble establishing that the officer actually suffered a lethal injury at the riots. He went back to his office after it was over and collapsed sometime later, and died in a hospital the next day. The popular narratives about him having been brained with a fire extinguisher are false. Don't think it's generally the case that if someone dies during civil unrest that they just charge everyone in wide proximity with felony murder.
