The Seth Rich Case: The FBI’s Other Laptop Scandal
American Thinker ^ | 3 Oct, 2022 | Jack Cashill

Posted on 10/03/2022 5:16:53 AM PDT by MtnClimber

For all the hubbub about the Hunter Biden laptop, there has been little talk about the laptop owned by DNC data analyst Seth Rich. In the way of brief summary, the 27-year-old Rich was beaten and then shot by unknown assailants on a Washington, D.C. street in the early morning hours of July 10, 2016. His attackers appear to have taken nothing—not his wallet, not his phone, not his watch.

Rich’s laptop was in his apartment not far from the scene of his murder. For six years, its fate has remained a mystery. In less than two weeks, however, thanks to a recent federal court decision, the FBI will be compelled to share its secrets, presuming there are any secrets and presuming too those secrets have not been scrubbed.

The FBI’s handling of the Hunter Biden laptop is well enough known. The FBI took the laptop into possession in October 2019. If the New York Post had not revealed its existence and some of its highly incriminating contents in October 2020, the public might not be aware of it even today.

FBI whistleblowers and Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley have pushed the Biden laptop back into the news. In a July 25 letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and FBI Director Christopher Wray, Grassley noted that the FBI allegedly “developed information in 2020 about Hunter Biden’s criminal financial and related activity,” but FBI Headquarters “improperly discredit[ed] negative Hunter Biden information as disinformation and caused investigative activity to cease.” The agent who blocked the Biden investigation from proceeding, Tim Thibault, resigned under a cloud a month ago.

If it seems like the FBI is hiding something, you can be pretty sure that they are. What does Hillary have to say?

I think you can always assume the FBI is hiding lots of things, whether it seems like it or not.

Really Jack, you don’t think the FBI doesn’t have more tricks up it’s sleeve which prevent the contents ever seeing the light of day?

The real question is why hasn’t his family been raising holy hell since his death.

I agree. The corrupt leftist FBI has had six years to hide and tamper with anything they want on Seth Rich. Young idealist working for the Democrats found what he was not supposed to find — end of story.

Yeah, that's weird.

I don't necessarily expect the family to say, "Hillary killed our son, we don't trust the FBI, we demand justice!"

I would think they might at least say, "Let's look into it. Let's see what is on our son's laptop. Was it a random mugging? We won't know until we look at all the facts."

But, from the beginning they seem to have said, "Shut up. Go away. It was random. There is nothing to see. No need to investigate. We hate Donald Trump."

Which is just weird.

Read up on Mafia tactics as that is the most likely reason that I can see. Either that, or they’re such hard-core Democrats that they’re willing to live with his execution if it ‘furthers their cause’.

I’m surprised he didn’t die through “Arkancide”.

I’ve always wondered if the family wasn’t threatened and/or bribed.

Not weird.

But predictable.

And sad.

Believe they were/are concerned about the safety of Seth’s brother. They just wished it all to go away.

I saw the spot he was shot. It was a neighborhood watch zone and there was a grocery store with a camera outside. Also right after he was shot the cops were there in a minute and he was still alive. I believe that was around 430am. At that time ANYONE on the street or driving around is a potential suspect, so what the hell happened? The whole thing stinks of a cover up and why the hell was his family so adamant it wasn't? Were they threatened?.

Google street view of where he was shot......... Seth Rich murder location

"Buh Bye Seth!"
