Former interim Democratic National Committee (DNC) head Donna Brazile worried Seth Rich was either killed for being white or by Russians.

From her book “Hacks“:
I felt some responsibility for Seth Rich’s death. I didn’t bring him into the DNC, but I helped keep him there working on voting rights. With all I knew now about the Russians’ hacking, I could not help but wonder if they had played some part in his unsolved murder. Besides that, racial tensions were high that summer and I worried that he was murdered for being white on the wrong side of town. [My friend] Elaine expressed her doubts about that, and I heard her. The FBI said that they did not see any Russian fingerprints there.
Brazile repeatedly returns to the subject of being haunted by Rich’s murder, even though other Democrats have pounced on anyone who suggested that the murder was anything other than a robbery gone wrong. The DNC data staffer was killed days before Wikileaks began publishing its emails, and his valuables were not taken.

But Brazile says she had a “spook,” with connections to the intelligence community, who told her after the killing that she needed protection for herself, including cameras, alarms and backup power at her house, and that she heeded his advice.
Brazile was so concerned with Rich’s death that she used her brief, only phone call from Hillary Clinton after the election loss to bring him up. She asked Clinton to use some of the millions of dollars the campaign had in order to set up a reward fund to find his murderer. But Hillary said she “really had to go.”
I knew the campaign had over $3 million set aside in a legal fund. Could she help me get this lawsuit started? And don’t forget the murder of Seth Rich, I told her. Did she want to contribute to Seth’s reward fund? We still hadn’t found the person responsible for the tragic murder of this bright young DNC staffer.
You’re right, she said. We’re going to get to that. But she really had to go. She had made the call and checked it off her list, and I accepted after we said our good-byes that I might never heard from her again.

I wonder how long before Brazile is killed or just disappears.
debbie washed up crook shults refused to allow the FBI to inspect the supposed hack server and she hid the hack for over a month. in other stories debbie washed up crook hired an IT person a recent immigrant from pakistan and gave him access to the federal government servers. irman awan the IT worker with no professional IT experience that debbie washed up crook shults hired was arrested and banned from the government servers for transfering large amounts of data to an unsecured drop box account. since he worked for debbie washed up crook shults he also had access to the DNC server. was the DNC server hacked by debbie washed up crook shult IT professional and it took a month for the washed up crook to hide it and then blame it on the russians? or was hillary clinton involved and both hacks were doen by irman awan Debbie washed up crook shults IT guy in an effort to gain dirt on senators who would likely object to hillary clintons rigging of the democratic primaries? I do not believe for one second the DNC hack was done by the russians, a NSA tech guy came out and said there was no way it could hav e been hacked over the internet the amount of data that was taken would have taken days to transfer even on the fastest of connections it had to have been taken straight off the server with a memory stick. it is my opinion that hillary and debbie washed up crook shults had irman awan take the data and make it look like a hack job by the russians, or irman awan did it all on his own so he could transfer all the data from both servers to the drop box account where he sold it to the highest bidder be it russia or isis!

Donna Brazile is a complete idiot & a liar. She knows full well the Clinton’s were involved in Seth Rich’s murder & likely Imran Awan was too since he was the last person with him that night.

Everything Brazile has done so far has been self-serving. Hopefully she doesn’t think that her admissions are a life insurance policy–the Clintons have proven to be relentless pursuers of their quarry in order to discourage any other thoughts of “disloyalty” among their associates.
it has been proven by wikileaks it was seth rich who sent the emails out to wikileaks and in turn after seth death the emails of podesta and hillary child trafficking, spirit cooking child rapes were exposed. one young brave man SETH RICH WAS MURDERED BY HILLARY AND OBAMA, BUT THIS YOUNG MAN WAS CAUSE TO SAVE AMERICA FROM HILLARY AND OBAMA, IT WILL COME OUT IN COURT OBAMA ORDERED THE MURDER OF SETH RICH

The DNC was never hacked, the source of the information being leaked was from a disgruntled DNC staffer named Marc Rich. This got Marc Rich killed. It does not surprise me Hillary would not want to find out who did it. People around the Clintons just end of dead……

“But Brazile says she had a “spook,” with connections to the intelligence community…”
Man, I didn’t think they liked to be called spooks, but, since she is black too, I guess she gets away with it. lol

Hillary is a lying crook…she should be in jail…
Yeah, I’m sure Hillary would love to help find Seth Rich’s killer. In fact, I think she has already spoken with O.J. about helping her, after he finds Nicole’s and Ron Goldman’s real killer.
