Buried Bombshell: FBI Quietly Admits It Has Seth Rich’s Laptop and Forensic Imaging of Work Computer
America First Report ^ | December 11, 2022 | Zachary Stieber

Posted on 12/11/2022 2:42:05 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

The FBI not only has possession of a laptop computer owned by slain Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer Seth Rich, but a report detailing forensic imaging of what’s being described as Rich’s work computer, the bureau revealed in a new filing.

The FBI’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 “a three (3) page forensic report detailing the actions performed by an outside entity to image the work laptop.”

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

Journalist Sy Hersh said in 2017 that he was told by a source about an FBI report on Seth Rich. He said, according to the source, that Seth Rich’s computer showed the DNC staffer had relayed DNC documents to WikiLeaks, a pro-transparency group. Hersh made the disclosure in a phone call with Ed Butowsky, an investor who has later retracted claims about Rich being a WikiLeaks source.

Rich was gunned down in the early morning hours on July 16, 2016, near his home in Washington. The killing of Rich, the DNC’s voter expansion data director, 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 DNC’s server to determine their validity.

The Metropolitan Police Department, the lead investigating agency, has declined to say whether the...

Hopefully, the Repubs will go after this. We know it wasn’t an ordinary robbery.

Sorry...can’t believe a word of anything the FBI says. They’ve had years to “develop” a computer and claim it to be Rich’s.

If a tree falls in a forest...or in this case: If the FIB has Seth Rich computer-but there's no Justice at the Department of Justice-Does it (computer) exist?

🤔

Well, why would the FBI be involved in some nothing-burger robbery gone wrong out in town? How many others like this do they work on like this?

Effing political hack liars.

The uniparty is tied to this, so it is just as much 'Rats, as it is the GOPe. At the national level, there are very few patriots, and not enough to "go after this".

Read at the time he had an appointment with the FBI the next morning.

Was the FBI as corrupt back then as it is now?

So did Seth have any cool games on it?
Are there any free downloads or access codes?

And why are they ripping off his computer?

The problem is, how do you go after the FBI? They ARE law enforcement...and they are permanent (i.e., not elected).

Even if a very damning story comes out about the FBI, what's anyone going to do about it? The FBI might scapegoat some underling at best, as they did recently with Agent Timothy Thibault. But even Thibault will probably pop back up in a new position or become a well-paid contractor.

And don't look to the DOJ. It's as political as the FBI.

This! It’s one thing to take his DNC work computer but his laptop, claim they not only don’t have his laptop but don’t have a file on him and then to admit they have both. Yeah, ordinary robbery (where nothing was taken but his life).

John Podesta was so angry about the leaks the he ordered Seth Rich to be killed.

The Podestas brothers were also involved in the Madeleine McCann disappearance.

Rich’s parents have mocked and opposed any speculation that their son’s death was anything but a botched robbery. Their loyalty to the Democratic Party and its agenda is boundless.

Let the Democrat party pay them if all they do is Democrat bidding.

Nothing was taken from Seth Rich. Not his expensive iPhone. Not his wallet. Nothing. It was a hit ordered by the DNC.

If you think that is a “sketch” then you are retarded.

Yes, and docs finally released this week indicate that Lee Harvey Oswald was involved in a CIA anti-Castro operation two months before he supposedly assassinated the President. For 60 years, they have denied any such connection.
