"... you are the reason Brian is dead, Mr. Khater." Impact Statement From Sicknick's Mom

Filed 1/24/23 brought here through Twitter.

Look for...

In her emotional victim impact statement, Gladys Sicknick places the deaths of her son Brian and other officers who took their lives following Jan. 6 at the feet of people she describes as former President Trump's "footsoldiers."

Sentencing is later today.

This monster deserves nothing less than life in prison for taking the life of her son. My heartfelt condolences to you Mrs. Sickness.

in another tab, my computer allows me to enlarge and save in downloads...hopefully for you also. The statement is measured and all but narcissists for trump will be moved.

one of the most insightful victim statements I have ever read. Outstanding and forceful. May the family find a measure of peace with the sentencing of "the animals" for trump today...

How divisive! Can't Gladys Sicknick just get over it and not make Julian Khater feel bad? It's like woke history or something. Why aren't these people talking about Hunter Biden's laptop or something equally important?

And now back to Fox's regular programming.
