After 4 Years of Stonewalling Corrupt FBI Finally Admits They're Holding Seth Rich's Laptop
2020-12-11
[Gateway] A stunning development on the legal front that directly impacts the so-called conspiracy theory that the death of Seth Rich was something more than routine street crime. The FBI now admits it has Seth Rich’s laptop. This information has just been posted on Lawflog.com courtesy of Ty Clevenger.

According to an email posted at Lawflog.com and sent to attorney Ty Clevenger, the attorney for the FBI now admits that the:
FBI has completed the initial search identifying approximately 50 cross-reference serials, with attachments totaling over 20,000 pages, in which Seth Rich is mentioned. FBI has also located leads that indicate additional potential records that require further searching. . . . FBI is also currently working on getting the files from Seth Rich’s personal laptop into a format to be reviewed. As you can imagine, there are thousands of files of many types. The goal right now is to describe, generally, the types of files/personal information contained in this computer.

After more than four years of repeated denials from the FBI that they had searched their files and had no information on Seth Rich, we now know that was a blatant lie. It was David Hardy, a FBI Senior official, who put that denial in writing in September 2017. Hardy was the Section Chief of the Record/Information Dissemination Section ("RIDS"), Information Management Division ("IMD"),1 Federal Bureau of Investigation ("FBI"), in Winchester, Virginia. He stated under oath that the FBI had no records on Seth Rich:

#7  The FBI is no longer a legitimate law enforcement organization. Maybe it would be more accurate to call it a branch of "organized crime".

Subject: Freedom of Information Request: Any OIG/DOJ investigations into the many alleged schemes of David M. Hardy, Chief of the RIDS/FOIA division of the FBI.
To OIG Department of Justice:
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I hereby request the following records:
Any OIG/DOJ investigations into the many alleged schemes of David M. Hardy, Chief of the RIDS/FOIA division of the FBI used to thwart and/or foil politically sensitive FOIA request that would allegedly implicate and/or expose a long pattern & history of FBI/DOJ misconduct, schemes commonly referred to as gamesmanship, shell games, withhold it because you want to, the alleged misuse of the Glomar exemption that has allegedly become popular at DOJ/FBI since Rosenstein was appointed Deputy U.S. Attorney, particularly FOIA request concerning Rosenstein's former colleagues at the MD. U.S. Attorneys office. (See Attachment)

#3  BTW: I would start with FBI Senior official David Hardy.
Who denied under oath and in writing that the FBI had no records on Seth Rich.

Again playing devils advocate.

It could have been done to protect the investigation.

But I feel feel given the 4 years it was hidden, it is more than likely done to protect the Phony Trump/Russia Impeachment Proceedings and those involved (DNC, Clinton's and etc..) that were pushing that Political False narrative.

Whatever the case it is clear something is suspiciously amiss.

While murder has no Statue of Limitations. It does raise the question. What is the Statue of Limitations for the crimes Mr. Rich laptop data likely uncovered and what political or $$$$ brownie point was it worth and to whom?

Summary
4 years to piece the data together I call BS...

Even IF the Drive was crashed and LEO courier escorted to ONTRACK Data Recovery and watched 24/7 I would have had it back to me in less than 3 days after scheduling the recovery.

then a typical IT Forensic Data Exam would take 2 to 4 weeks.

Been There Done That.

#2  /\ Could I add unannounced drug testing to the above ?

Good enuf for sojurs, good enuf for feather merchants.

#1  Maybe it is time to have an Independent Special Investigation of all US Agencies.

If for nothing other than to WEED OUT THE VERY FEW,
but clearly existing Rouge Subversive and Political elements that have wormed their way into them.

Why not require a 2 rotating party witnessed Polygraph conducted by other agencies. Along with a TS level Life Style/Association review administered once a year, by different auditors and testers.

Because anyone with holding the Highest most important LEO and National Security jobs in the USA, MUST BE beyond ANY reproach.
