4 people died.

Five, actually. Officer Brian Sicknick died as a result of wounds suffered during the conflict [1]. Details beyond that are still hard to find. This after Giuliani demanded "trial by combat" from the gathered mob. Hard to believe he will face justice though, given that Trump plans to pardon everybody and their mother.

An unarmed protester was gunned down by police.

And yet, the mob continued to attack for another hour or two, while the DoD refused to send troops to help out.

I have to wonder if Trump intended the DOD to send in troops and use those troops to shut down the certification, and they refused.
