The District of Columbia’s police department on Monday said two more police officers who responded to the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol have died by suicide, bringing to four the number of known suicides by officers who guarded the building that day.
Metropolitan Police Officer Gunther Hashida was found dead in his home Thursday, department spokesman Hugh Carew said in a statement.
Hashida joined the District of Columbia’s Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) in May 2003.
Another MPD officer who responded to the Capitol on Jan. 6, Kyle DeFreytag, was found dead on July 10, Carew said. DeFreytag’s cause of death was also suicide, Carew said.
He had been with the police department since November 2016.
MPD Officer Jeffrey Smith and U.S. Capitol Police Officer Howard Liebengood also responded to the Capitol riot and later died by suicide.
Hundreds of then-President Donald Trump supporters stormed the building that day in an unsuccessful attempt to stop Congress from certifying Democratic President Joe Biden’s election win.
Four people died on the day of the violence.
A Capitol Police officer who had been attacked by protesters died the following day. More than 100 police officers were injured.
The mayhem led to Trump’s second impeachment trial. More than 500 people have been arrested for their roles in the violence.
During emotional testimony last week, four police officers told a House of Representatives special committee that they were beaten, threatened, taunted with racial insults, and thought they might die as they struggled to defend the Capitol against the mob.
real strange . government employment seems
not so secure as many think ! a lot of bribing,
blackmailing going on ?
Maybe the official lie is too difficult to sustain?
That nonsense that their feelings were hurt because of some naughty words is possibly the most insulting tactic in history. What sort of sob sisters are joining the Capitol Police?
These dead may tell a story indeed. We’ll never know it.
Died of suicide, or died of suicidedness?
I saw the testimonies of those 4 police officers. In all due respect, it smelt somewhat of theatrics – theatricks?
USA – Unidentified Scumbag Assassins
So glad I escaped it 50 years ago. To all Truthers there: Be wise & strong!
Died of Arkancide is more likely. They know the truth of what happened 1/6.
Perhaps they refused to sign the statements that were put in front of them. Perhaps they threatened to expose the fact that the whole thing was a setup.
Suicided, rather than suicide?

Maybe none of these people died, and it is the CONTINUATION OF MILLENIAS OF THEATRE(LYING) BY THE SAME PHOENICIAN PEERAGE JEW FAMILIES?
Most probably: they did not die, just changed names with the help of FBI. They are living in another state/country with another name. This was done to avoid “unwelcome questions” about why they opened the gates
Ot the police men can be complete created persons with cia created histories, whose role played actors played. But here again, no need to andwer unwelcome questions about why they invited people into the senate
dead men tell no tales, wheather they are really dead or not
Move over Hillary, Nancy (Pelosi) is the new suicider queen.
Chucky Schumer and Pelosi murdering opponents? You don’t say.
Jews are on a rampage.
Good. But they need to pick up the pace. Anyone protecting the criminal cartel masquerading as federal government, an organization actively trying to destroy and kill you and your families, needs to die as quickly, and painfully, as possible.
Hmmm.. Epstein type suicide maybe ??
Wow. I have very little faith in humanity after reading these comments. You have police officers committing suicide after trying to do their duty, and all you can do is scoff at them. What, because the whole, “It was antifa that cause the capitol riots” couldn’t hold up to scrutiny, now you all are saying it was a bunch of peaceful tourists? Sad. Here is the truth: A bunch of right-wing, QAnon, Trump cultists stormed the Capitol after being inflamed by Donald Trump at his rally. Many police officers were injured, electrocuted by their own tazer, left nearly beaten to death. There is thousands of hours of footage showing this, yet you ignore it. Many people on the right thought that Obama would try to make himself a dictator, yet that never happened. Now you have people on the right who wants Trump to become the dictator of the USA, and you fail to see the hypocrisy. SMH.
Anyone who thinks that it was a bunch of Trump supporters who created all the trouble has a head full of sawdust.
@David Tyler. Your Yamika is showing.
Did these officers feel like traitors to their country, one wonders?
