Actually... Sorry to ruin your conspiracy theory party but police officers commit suicide at a rate far exceeding the general population. Two deaths in an agency that size isn’t out of the ordinary.

Uhhhh, yeah, nothing to see here boys. 2 guys "committing suicide" a few weeks after there were multiple videos of Capitol officers allowing people into the building as well as directing them to the fricking floor but we'll just chalk that up to statistics.

There's just under 700K law enforcement officers in the US. In 2018, 167 LE committed suicide. That's 1 in every 4K LE officers.
The Capitol Police employs about 2K officers. So one would expect about 1 suicide in the Capitol Police force every 2 years. Two suicides in less than a month is certainly out of the ordinary.

Lol. Idiot.
228 total police officers in the US committed suicide in 2019 out of ~800,000.
Less than 1,000 officers responded to the Capitol protest (maybe as few as 500). 2 of those committed suicide in a matter of two weeks.
