you initially made it sound like he was alive and well eddy
thank you, i reviewed your source. it is evident that the investigation is ongoing and it would be foolish to draw conclusions with so little information available to the public
thanks jb eddy was kind enough to give us the direct link

The image, like so many Rightwing websites are at the moment, is portraying what CNN reported out of context.
Fact: people die of similar events due to natural causes.
(CNN)Investigators are struggling to build a federal murder case regarding fallen US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick, vexed by a lack of evidence that could prove someone caused his death as he defended the Capitol during last month's insurrection.

Fact: he thought he was just fine.
His eldest brother, Ken Sicknick, told ProPublica in an interview published Jan. 8 that Brian Sicknick had texted him on the night on Jan. 6 to tell him he had been pepper-sprayed but felt fine. He told the outlet his brother was dead by the next night, after suffering a stroke.

edible words, for gods sakes, you’re talking nonsense. guide. lines. please.
it is far too early to tell what he died of. this is a non issue for both sides as we just do not know

How do I debunk defamatory statements without fact-checking with a linked quote?

it’s only defamation if it’s untrue. maybe you have received some award for activism? perhaps there are testimonials from those you have brought over to your viewpoint. maybe your mum says you never lie.

One doesn't have to backpeddle if one doesn't attempt to mislead people.

What case are you making and what backpedaling are you referring to?
I stand by my verified claim that he died with no blunt trauma injuries. And my verified claim that he told his brother he was fine that night.
Do you care to back up your assertion that I backpedaled in any way?

Excuse me? The burden of proof lies with the accuser who has no evidence to back his defamatory claim.

You only clarified that Sicknick died after you were caught perpetuating the possibility that he didn't.
What's equally disgusting is that you continue to infer that Sicknick died of natural causes and not as a result of what happened during the Capitol riot when the autopsy results are still pending.

Excuse me? I did not say he did not die. Where did I say he was alive???
His brother got word from him that he was just fine after the incident. So he did not die of any injuries.
EDIT to add:
I just at this point realized you thought I was saying he was alive today!
That’s not even debunking anything, JB. That’s just showing your confusion.
