FBI Reveals It Has More Information on Slain DNC Staffer Seth Rich

The Epoch Times Header

The FBI not only has possession of a laptop computer owned by Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer Seth Richโ€”who was murdered in 2016 by unknown assailantsโ€”but a report detailing forensic imaging of whatโ€™s being described as Richโ€™s work computer, the bureau revealed in a new filing.

The FBIโ€™s records office located the report while searching for the work computer, Michael Seidel, chief of the office, said in a sworn declaration filed with a federal court in Texas on Dec. 9.

He described the document as โ€œa three (3) page forensic report detailing the actions performed by an outside entity to image the work laptop.โ€

The report was among four documents that never had been disclosed by the FBI in relation to Richโ€™s case.

Journalist Sy Hersh said a source told him around 2017 about an FBI report on Rich. According to the source, Richโ€™s computer showed the DNC staffer had relayed DNC documents to WikiLeaks, a pro-transparency group. Hersh spoke about the sourceโ€™s claims during a phone call with Ed Butowsky, an investor who later retracted claims about Richโ€™s brother Aaron being a WikiLeaks source, and discussed the call during a deposition.

Rich, the DNCโ€™s voter expansion data director, was shot in the early morning of July 10, 2016, near his home in Washington. Richโ€™s murder remains unsolved. Authorities have claimed that the killing was a robbery gone wrong. Julian Assange, the head of WikiLeaks, has suggested that Rich passed DNC files to the group, which released the DNC files in 2016. U.S. authorities have alleged that Russians hacked into the DNC systems, but those allegations were made before the FBI received images from the DNCโ€™s server to determine their validity.

The Metropolitan Police Department is the lead investigating agency into the death. It has declined to say whether the FBI was helping with the probe into Richโ€™s death.
