Sorry, this is all nothing more than gibberish.
Please format it and translate it.
In Summary, says it is Seth Rich but his verification/validation wasn’t good enough for the courts and was stricken from the record. He was giving hearsay testimony but he gave names that I suspect will be called, paid off, or killed.
Or you could go to the link, do a "find" search for Seth Rich, and see where he is mentioned 5 times.
It is a copy-and-paste group of words that are the sworn testimony of the witness. In “court speak” they put line numbers by the testimony sentences - those are numbers you see stuck in the sentences.
An enemy lawyer, or an enemy representative or senator or committee chairmen who is listening to the deposition, is interrupting the speaker and deleting specific phrases and words. (Striking from the revord). This manipulates the record, and lets somebody else lie. “It depends on your definition of “is” is type of lie.

The gibberish is the defense lawyer trying to obscure what is a very straight forward answer by confusing the court and blocking any intelligent understanding of what is being stated.
Here’s the translation: Hersh admits freely that it was “true” he was told by his source that Seth Rich offered documents to WikiLeaks in exchange for a monetary consideration but he tries to obfuscate his answer by conflating this with his statement that he doesn’t know if what he was told was “true” because he didn’t bother to verify it (independently). This is known philosophically as pure semantic sophistry which is what much of this questioning involves but it doesn’t change the fact that he was told that Seth Rich was involved with WikiLeaks.
Each sentence is a court transcript is numbered. If you read it without the numbers, it will flow smoothly. That’s something you can do for yourself on the fly.
