No, that wasn't it.

For those who DO "Back the Blue," this news is heartbreaking:

Gunther Hashida, a D.C. Metropolitan Police Department officer, is the third law-enforcement member on the scene on January 6 to die by suicide.

The NLEOMF only counts line-of-duty deaths, and suicide isn’t considered in its annual law enforcement fatalities report. According to Blue H.E.L.P. (honor, educate, lead, prevent), a law enforcement suicide-focused nonprofit that supports fallen officers’ surviving family members and records LEO suicide statistics, 173 law enforcement officers committed suicide in 2020.

Considering how bad officers were treated last year, 173 suicides seems to be pretty low.
