#SethRich was a hero
I know that Seth Rich was involved in the DNC leak.
I know this because in late 2014 a person contacted me about helping me to start a branch of the Internet Party in the United States. He called himself Panda. I now know that Panda was Seth Rich.
Panda advised me that he was working on voter analytics tools and other technologies that the Internet Party may find helpful.
I communicated with Panda on a number of topics including corruption and the influence of corporate money in politics.
“He wanted to change that from the inside.”
I was referring to what I knew when I did an interview with Bloomberg in New Zealand in May 2015. In that interview I hinted that Julian Assange and Wikileaks would release information about Hillary Clinton in the upcoming election.
The Rich family has reached out to me to ask that I be sensitive to their loss in my public comments. That request is entirely reasonable.
I have consulted with my lawyers. I accept that my full statement should be provided to the authorities and I am prepared to do that so that there can be a full investigation. My lawyers will speak with the authorities regarding the proper process.
If my evidence is required to be given in the United States I would be prepared to do so if appropriate arrangements are made. I would need a guarantee from Special Counsel Mueller, on behalf of the United States, of safe passage from New Zealand to the United States and back. In the coming days we will be communicating with the appropriate authorities to make the necessary arrangements. In the meantime, I will make no further comment.

I had imagined that ("well timed terrorist attack" to divert the news release scheduled to be on Hannity last night and to be seen by his millions of viewers).
And then today... the family got him to back off "for now" he emphasized.

When the Wash Post story broke, (some anonymous person said this about that) it was just after the Seth Rich investigator went on Fox News and broke that the DC police were told to stand down. I'm thinking to myself "this is huge!"
Bam, the Wa Post story buried the Seth Rich story.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Seth's parents on their quest to the truth being exposed.

It appears to me that the Rich family does not want the truth out. They want the death of their son out of the news and to fade away.
They do not wish for the truth behind their son's death to come out. That is why they have a democratic mouthpiece representing them to the media. They would lose plenty of money from DNC if the motive behind their son's death came out.

SOMEONE IS LYING TO SETH RICH’S FAMILY ABOUT KIM DOTCOM (https://contraspin.co.nz/someone-is-lying-to-seth-richs-family-about-kim-dotcom/) (May 23, 2017)

It appears to me that the Rich family does not want the truth out.
That's the public story, what we're being told.
I would guess that there is pressure on some one in the family (Aaron Rich, brother of Seth Rich? (http://money.cnn.com/2017/05/23/media/seth-rich-family-letter-hannity-fox-news/index.html)) to fervently ask those investigating to stop talking about it, and pressure on those investigating to honor (or at least claim to honor) that family member.
It's this pressure, which is likely intense, and custom targeted to whatever will be the weakest points of those involved, that's the problem.
Ultimately, in other words, the reason this story may well remain essentially suppressed is not because that's what the Rich family wants, but because some minions of the elite bastards want that. Likely, in my view, Aaron Rich is just another pawn in this drama, being used to put a lid on this story.

OPEN LETTER FROM KIM DOTCOM TO FAMILY OF SETH RICH
Family of Seth Rich
c/- Aaron Rich
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Dear Aaron
SETH RICH – DNC LEAKS
Introduction
1. As you know, you and I have previously corresponded after I reached out to you to offer my assistance with the GoFundMe campaign on behalf of the family of Mr Rich (family). I understand from our communications that you are representing the family in relation to the ongoing investigation into Mr Rich's death and I am writing to you in that capacity.
2. In particular, I am writing regarding recent statements about me that have been reported globally (including in New Zealand) and attributed to the family. As set out in more detail below, some of these statements are false and defamatory.
3. The purpose of this letter is to formally request that the family and their representatives cease from making such statements about me going forward. This request is made in the spirit of us constructively moving forward and allowing the investigation into the DNC leak to progress without delay so that there can be an informed decision on whether it had any involvement in Mr Rich's death, as many fear.
4. However, if these statements do not cease, it will be necessary for me to take further action. It is ironic that the family complain of others potentially making statements that they fear (without actually knowing) will be incorrect and then make incorrect statements about me themselves.
5. I remain prepared to assist in the investigation, as I have said. While I want to show understanding to the family in this difficult time, I also maintain that what I have said is true and will be substantiated upon investigation. While that may be difficult for the family to accept, in time I expect it to play a valuable part in revealing the truth. However, that is a matter for the current investigation. I simply wish to make sure that the investigators have the benefit of my evidence.
6. I have said that I will share what I know, and why, with the relevant authorities if the appropriate arrangements can be made. That is what I understand from our
communications the family also want. The family, once fully informed, can then make up their own mind, as will the investigation. However, that will not happen by ignoring the evidence of witnesses like me who are prepared to speak up, or by seeking to discredit such witnesses by pre-emptively attacking their credibility. I simply ask that the family listen, before attacking.
The statements
7. The statements in question include:
(a) variations on the statements below reported in the Washington Post article 'The life and death of the Seth Rich conspiracy theory (https://www.washingtonpost.com/powerpost/the-life-and-death-of-the-seth-rich-conspiracy-theory/2017/05/23/aba640c4-3ff3-11e7-adba-394ee67a7582_story.html?utm_term=.8132f39ac93d)'; and
(b) allegations in the letter I understand the family sent to Fox News to the effect that I have previously used false evidence.
8. Both are without any factual basis, for the reasons set out below.
Washington Post article
9. The Washington Post article states (in part):
When Seth Rich's Gmail account received an alert this week from Mega.com, attempting to start a new account on a website created by the New Zealand-based
Internet businessman and convicted hacker Kim Dotcom, his family knew that
something was off. Over seven frenzied days, Dotcom had become a leading purveyor of the theory that Rich, a staffer at the Democratic National Committee who was shot dead near his home in Northeast Washington last summer, had supplied DNC documents to WikiLeaks and was killed as a result. Multiple security analysts and an FBI investigation have tied the release to hackers with ties to Russia. D.C. police have said repeatedly that they think Rich was slain in a random robbery attempt.
According to experts and Rich's family, the emailed invitation from
welcome@mega.nz appeared to be an attempt to gain access to Rich's email.
Joel Rich, who maintains his late son's Gmail account, did not click the link.
Meanwhile, Dotcom was promising on Twitter to prove that the younger Rich had
been in contact with WikiLeaks — and Fox News host Sean Hannity was telling
his 2.37 million Twitter followers to be ready for a revelation.
...
The latest revelation — that a hacker from New Zealand may have been trying as
recently as this week to hack into Rich's email — offered fresh evidence that the
conspiracy theory is false. Dotcom, it seemed, may have been willing to create a
fake archive of emails from Rich to "prove" his role in the DNC hack.
10. The clear inference the reader is invited to draw from the above is that I attempted to hack Mr Rich's email account. This is simply not true and is made without any genuine foundation. As you know, the email correspondence between us can be checked and contains no such threat.
11. It is alleged that Mr Rich's email account received a verification email from mega.nz. That may be so. But that does not mean that any attempt was made to hack his email account. Literally anyone could have gone to Mega.nz and registered an account there using Mr Rich's gmail address, which was publicly known. That would then have resulted in Mega sending a verification email to that address. If someone had registered Mr Rich's email at Dropbox for example, Dropbox would likewise have sent a confirmation link. That has nothing to do with hacking.
12. If there has been an attempt to hack Mr Rich's email account, I know nothing of it and there is no connection to me. There is no credible basis in fact to link me to any attempted hacking of Mr Rich's email. If the family genuinely believe they can establish a link, which I do not accept, then by all means disclose that and I will respond to it and rebut it openly.
I would welcome this. Once the allegation is shown to be without foundation, the focus could once again return to the DNC leaks and Mr Rich's death.
13. The suggestion that I am attempting to plant evidence into Mr Rich's email account would appear to be an attempt to discredit any evidence I may give before I have a chance to give it. That those who seek to speak the truth are, as I have been, subjected to a smear campaign to try to discredit them indicates to me that the truth is known and not welcome.
Letter to Fox News
14. The family's letter to Fox News includes the following false statements about me:
(a) "In March, Kim circulated a letter purporting to show a conspiracy against him".
(b) "New Zealand law enforcement officials investigated the letter thoroughly and discovered without a shadow of a doubt that the letter was a forgery".
(c) "[He has] in the past, been caught using fabricated email evidence to forward his own agenda and confuse people".
(d) "[He is] known to have pushed false evidence in the past".15. These statements are incorrect because:
(a) I did not, in March or at any other time, circulate a letter purporting to show a conspiracy against me. The alleged "letter" and "fabricated email evidence" referred to is an alleged email from Kevin Tsujihara (Chief Executive of Warner Brothers) to Michael Ellis (Asia-Pacific president of the Motion Picture Association of America) (Email). The Email came to light in 2014. I did not publish, and never used, this email as, once it was provided to me, I was concerned as to whether it was reliable.
(b) I did not circulate the Email. Rather, the New Zealand Herald obtained a copy of the Email and published it. For my part, I have publicly and transparently stated that the email was easy to discredit because it did not have headers and I declined to use it for that reason. It is a matter of public record that the Email was not in fact used or disclosed by me. This is of course the opposite of what the statements in the family's letter contend.16. Accordingly, there is no factual basis for the statements in the letter. To the contrary, the facts clearly indicate that I was not prepared to, and did not, use evidence that could not be verified. To suggest otherwise is misleading and defamatory.
A way forward
17. The statements above appear to have been a calculated "pre-emptive strike" on my reputation and credibility. The sad irony is that, as my conduct since receipt of the family's email clearly shows, I was, and remain, prepared to accommodate the family's wishes.
Indeed, for respecting their wishes and making no further public comment, I have been subjected to considerable criticism online and in the global media. However, I was prepared to weather this criticism in the interests of accommodating the family's concerns.
18. It is unfortunate that matters have come to this as my objective is the same as the family's – to see that the truth comes out and justice is done. What appears to have been overlooked is that the easiest thing for someone in my position to do in this situation would be to say nothing at all. However, that would not have helped or been right.
19. As should be clear from my conduct, and the emails we exchanged, I do not wish to cause any distress for the family. But nor can I sit idly by without communicating what I know to the appropriate authorities. I will, through my legal team, progress the necessary arrangements with the authorities.
20. As I have repeatedly stated, while this process is ongoing, I do not intend to make further public comment. However, I now find myself in the invidious position where, out of deference and respect to the family, I have declined to make further public comment but now find my reputation and credibility under attack from the family. If I am forced to respond publicly to these incorrect and unfair allegations, it would have the opposite effect of what the family has asked me to do and I have sought to accommodate.
21. I therefore request that, in the meantime, the family refrain from repeating the false statements described in this letter. I have not taken the step of commencing defamation proceedings in relation to the above statements although I would be entitled to do so in New Zealand. I reserve all of my rights and remedies in this regard. My preference is that the family and I move forward together. If, after learning what I have to say through the appropriate channels (as requested by the family), the family choose not to accept it, that is a matter for the family. I seek only to pass on what I know so that the truth can be fully and openly investigated and then reported on. Why that should cause me to be unduly attacked raises more questions than it answers. My view is that the truth is not something to be feared.
22. If, however, the statements are repeated, I will have no choice but to consider the formal legal options available to me. I hope this will not be necessary, hence this correspondence.
23. Please consider this request made in good faith and confirm by return that the family and its agents will cease from further linking me to the alleged attempted hack of Mr Rich's email and other unsupportable allegations.
Yours sincerely,
Kim Dotcom

Private cyber security firm payments coincide with deaths of Seth Rich, Shawn Lucas (https://disobedientmedia.com/2017/09/breaking-crowdstrike-payments-coincide-with-deaths-of-seth-rich-shawn-lucas/)

A breaking report from America First Media Group (https://af-mg.com/2017/09/21/breaking-seth-rich-hush-money/) appears to show that payments made to private cyber security firm Crowdstrike coincided with the dates of two mysterious deaths, including the unsolved murder of Seth Rich and the death of process server Shawn Lucas.
Disobedient Media previously reported on Shawn Lucas' death, which occurred shortly after he attempted to serve former DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz with papers regarding the DNC Fraud Lawsuit. Attorneys for the plaintiffs in that case later sought protection from the court, and in doing so had cited both Seth Rich and Shawn Lucas' deaths, as well as that of Beranton Whisenant Jr. and others.
In their report, America First Media Group (https://af-mg.com/2017/09/21/breaking-seth-rich-hush-money/) shows that the first payments made were preemptive measures on May 5th, 2016. They add that the next payment to Crowdstrike, totaling $98,849.84, took place on July 11th.
Their report (https://af-mg.com/2017/09/21/breaking-seth-rich-hush-money/) specifically stated that:
"The relationship to this date happens to be the day after DNC Data Director of New Voter Registration Seth Rich was murdered."
The report (https://af-mg.com/2017/09/21/breaking-seth-rich-hush-money/) indicates:
"The final payment to date is August 3rd, 2016. This coincides with another murder in the District of Columbia. Shawn Lucas, who died on August 2nd of last year, was the DNC Process Server and close friend of Seth Rich."
That Lucas and Rich were friends is an extremely important and noteworthy detail, and may provide some connection between their deaths which has not previously been considered. If true it is an extremely new detail in the context of their deaths and the political furor surrounding both men.
Disobedient Media has provided ongoing coverage of Crowdstrike, including their connection to George Soros via the Atlantic Council. We have also extensively reported on the groundbreaking work of Adam Carter (http://g-2.space/), who has raised strong concerns regarding Crowdstrike's possible role in the creation of the Guccifer 2.0 persona and possible fabrication of Russian hacking in coordination with the DNC. Carter has specifically reported on the possibility that former Assistant FBI Director Shawn Henry, currently the President of Crowdstrike, as well as Dmitri Alperovitch, the company's co-founder and CTO.
If the latest reports from America First Media Group (https://af-mg.com/2017/09/21/breaking-seth-rich-hush-money/) are proven to be substantial, it would be monumental not only in terms of shedding light on the circumstances of two untimely deaths, but also in revealing the machinations of a firm who seems intimately involved with the DNC power structure and who may have been involved in the fabrication of one of the greatest political scandals in recent memory.

Have seen the above docu-drama "Kim Dotcom: Caught In The Web" - IMO excellent & well worth the watch, clearly laying out that the raid on his Mansion in NZ was illegal and unlawful under NZ Law; in a nutshell, US interests had no legal jurisdiction. Furthermore, NZ govt broke its own rules regarding spying on NZ Citizens (John Keys, the Prime Minister at the time, then "changed the rules" to make it legal to do so after the fact & constant denial).
Personally, I suspect the whole sham had more to do with the above (Hervé's Post #14) than "breaking copyright", a set up from the get-go. ;)

A breaking report from America First Media Group appears to show that payments were made from the DNC to private cyber security firm Crowdstrike, which coincided with the dates of two mysterious deaths: the unsolved murder of Seth Rich and the sudden, unexpected death of process server Shawn Lucas.
Disobedient Media previously reported on Shawn Lucas’ death, which occurred shortly after he attempted to serve former DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz with papers regarding the DNC Fraud Lawsuit. Attorneys for the plaintiffs in that case later sought protection from the court, and in doing so cited both Seth Rich and Shawn Lucas‘ deaths, as well as that of Beranton Whisenant Jr.
In their report, America First Media Group illustrates that the first payments from the DNC to Crowdstrike were made on May 5th, 2016. They show that the next payment to Crowdstrike, totaling $98,849.84, took place on July 11th.
