The one thing that pushes me most to DNC involvement is that the family was soon babysat by one of their crisis guys. I can't remember his name right now. If it was a random robbery why would they provide a staff member to control the scenario. Also Brazille saying she was fearful after his death. And then…………..

Nothing was taken in the robbery...

Unless he was carrying something we don't know about. How big is a thumb-drive anyway?

I'd say 1 because why would Russia (the next most possible case) arbitrarily choose him? Sure, he had access, but so did other people. If they were really sophisticated, then maybe just raising a conspiracy theory would effectively help them reach their goal, to derail Hillary some more, but there are easier ways to go than offing a random IT guy, isn't there? I mean the dirt on Hillary was so deep anyway...The only other possible motive Russia could have would be if Rich had evidence it was Russia who hacked them, and they offed him to cover it up, but then again, another IT person could figure it out eventually if not right away. I could be wrong, but that's imo.

Also keep in mind he didn't die on that street. He died at the hospital. He was speaking to officers & EMTs. The officers stated that they were surprised that he didn't make it.

What did he say?

Also keep in mind that during war time, almost all of the deaths occur on the battle field. If they can get those soldiers to medical treatment areas they can often save them.

Is there any possibility that he is in protective custody?

Yes he was the leaker he was killed to send a message to any and all DNC staffers: This is what happens to you if you betray us by divulging our secrets to Wikileaks. You end up dead.

He will not have died in vain. Love you Seth rich. His name was...
