The FBI has revealed that it has more information on deceased DNC staffer Seth Rich, according to a recent report. Rich was killed in 2016 in what authorities have described as a botched robbery, but his death has been the subject of numerous conspiracy theories.
In response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, the FBI has released thousands of pages of documents related to the investigation into Rich’s death. The documents include interviews with witnesses, forensic reports, and other information related to the case.
The release of these documents comes after years of speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding Rich’s death. Many on the political right have claimed that Rich was murdered because he was the source of the DNC emails that were leaked to WikiLeaks in 2016. However, there is no evidence to support this theory, and the FBI’s investigation concluded that there was no evidence of foul play in Rich’s death.
According to The Epoch Times,
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.

The new records were found after the records office contacted an unnamed FBI special agent during its search for Rich’s work computer, according to FBI Records Chief Seidel.
The other records are a letter from a third-party that accompanied the work computer and two FBI chain of custody forms.
Despite the lack of evidence, the conspiracy theories surrounding Rich’s death have persisted. This has caused immense pain for his family and friends, who have had to endure years of speculation and accusations. But we just want the truth.
The release of these documents by the FBI may help provide some clarity surrounding Rich’s death.
