Seth Rich, slain DNC staffer, had contact with WikiLeaks, say multiple sources

A federal investigator who reviewed an FBI forensic report detailing the contents of DNC staffer Seth Rich’s computer generated within 96 hours after his murder, said Rich made contact with WikiLeaks through Gavin MacFadyen, a now-deceased American investigative reporter, documentary filmmaker, and director of WikiLeaks who was living in London at the time.

...
The revelation is consistent with the findings of Rod Wheeler, a former DC homicide detective and Fox News contributor and whose private investigation firm was hired by Rich’s family to probe the case. Rich was shot from behind in the wee hours, but was not robbed.


Two separate findings, same result.

Didn't you right wingers already determine that Hillary's hit squad that was responsible? You know the most stealth and efficient hit squad in history. Haven't they whacked like 60 some odd people or so and got away clean every time.

Maybe this guy can crack the case.

Sorry folks, but seeing as how the POTUS has leaked highly classified information to the Russians, nobody cares about this conspiracy theory right now.

You guys continue talking amongst yourselves, though.
This.

The conservative social media engineers are working overtime desperately trying to deflect from the failing Trump administration.

A for effort, guys, but it's just not working.

The Seth Rich story is potentially huge, but at this point it's just speculation. Many on the right desperately want it to be true so will believe it even though we have no hard evidence at this point. If Seth Rich was behind the DNC document leaks, that's huge. If Seth Rich was actually offed by someone in the Clinton camp, that's even bigger. Either of these would be a disaster for the Democrats, and so the leftist media won't cover it unless it blows up to the point that they have to. I'm willing to bet nothing comes out of any of this.

Someone should appoint a special prosecutor to this case.

Seth's brothers says:

"His murder remains a mystery, and despite the hard work of the detectives at the Washington Metropolitan Police Department, we have still been unable to get the answers to the questions surrounding his death. Because of the lack of clear evidence in the case, Seth’s job working for the Democratic National Committee and the caustic political environment we find ourselves in today, many people have used my brother’s murder for their own agendas. Every few weeks another conspiracy theory surfaces, another promise of credible information and another lack of evidence to support the crazy claims being made."

Good grief,

DNC Worker Seth Conrad Rich Gunned Down on the Way to Meet FBI

From Snopes:

Fevered political conspiracy theories about the death of Seth Rich have been swirling through online comment sections and websites ever since the Omaha native was gunned down early on July 10 close to his home in northwest Washington, D.C.
All indications from police have been that Rich’s death was most likely the result of a botched robbery — a sadly too-common case of a promising young man cut down simply by being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
But that hasn’t stopped wild Internet speculation from going viral, based in part on the fact that Rich worked at the Democratic National Committee. Internet commenters have suggested that Rich was behind the disclosure of DNC emails to WikiLeaks that helped force the resignation of Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida as chairwoman. The conspiracy theorists got new ammunition when WikiLeaks announced a $20,000 reward for information leading to a conviction in Rich’s death.

The media can obsessively cover any story they can concoct about about trump from fake dossiers with russian hookers and trump, trump and ice cream scandals, trump and Russian blackmail etc yet a story that is confirmed by numerous sources including julian assange, that a dnc staffer was an informant with wikileaks and he was murdered barely merits a mention today after these disclosures from rod wheeler?

Rod wheeler as well as a federal source has seen the emails between Wikileaks and seth rich, but the media doesnt seem to have any interest in this?

I am open minded just like the OP probably is. I realize there is real corruption and real scary stuff that happens, even in the high levels of politics, sometimes people just say that without really thinking about how real and crazy it is. But I think the news media is ignoring this story because although it does look suspicious, no one can doubt that, there is no real hard proof of high level foul play. And let us be honest, most people wouldn't care.
