Cassandra Fairbanks Breaks Several New Leads In The Seth Rich Case

in #news7 years ago (edited)

Journalist Cassandra Fairbanks has broken several new leads into the murder case of DNC Data Director Seth Rich including - two leaked audios one of which by Noble Prize winning journalist Seymore Hersh who pins Rich as Wikileaks source for the DNC leaked emails.

Leaked audio of private investigator Rod Wheeler explains what really happened with the Fox News coverage of Seth Rich and tells a tale of how Seth Rich's brother Aaron Rich tried to shutdown anyone who uttered the WikiLeaks connection.

On August 1st,  Wheeler filed a lawsuit in New York City alleging the White House was involved in pushing the Seth Rich story on Fox News. In the leaked recording he contradicts himself stating he contacted Fox News reporters on his own accord Big League Politics reported.

 “The story has already blown up, this will only give credence to the  story. If Fox News channel broke it, it would seem like conspiracy  theories,” Wheeler says the Fox 5 DC reporter texted him. “So she  decided that she was going to run with this story, in her mind, so it  didn’t seem like a conspiracy theory from Fox News," Cassandra Fairbanks wrote.

Wheeler went on to describe how Aaron Rich proceeded to stop his investigation at every turn.

He was blocked from looking into his - computer, cell phone and apparent second smartphone.

 “He said no, I have his computer,” Wheeler said. 

“I said, well can I  look at it?," Wheeler retorted.

"what are you looking for?," Rich argued.

"I said anything that could indicate if Seth was having problems with someone," Wheeler said. 

"no, I  already checked it. Don’t worry about it,” Rich responded.

Not only that but according to Wheeler, Rich's brother tried to divert his attention away from looking into the party that Seth Rich attended hours before his untimely death.

 “All I want you to do is work on the botched robbery theory and that’s  it,” Aaron told Wheeler, according to Wheeler’s claim on the leaked audio.  Wheeler stated that Seth’s father Joel “does not appear to have any hidden agenda.” 

Additionally, Fairbanks discovered Rich's brother works in Cyber Defense as a government contractor for  Northrup Grumman.

The leaked audio uploaded on Youtube under the title "More audio bits" is below:

That's not the only story that Fairbanks broke she also leaked an audio of Seymore Hersh expressing that Seth Rich was Wikileaks source of the DNC email leak. Something that Assange has hinted at consistently even raising the reward for information on his death to a bounty of $20,000. 

Hersh went on to describe the existence of a secret dropbox account that was used by Rich to dump the emails. He also added that Rich was asking for money for the files at one point early on in the exchange.

Hersh is infamous for his journalism regarding Syria and the red line and rat line. He also broke the  My Lai and Abu Ghraib scandals.

 “All I know is that he offered a  sample, an extensive sample, I’m sure dozens of emails, and said ‘I want  money.’ Later, WikiLeaks did get the password, he had a DropBox, a protected DropBox,” Hersh said. 

"They got access to the DropBox.” 

Hersh also stated that Rich had concerns about something happening to him, “the word was passed,  according to the NSA report, he also shared this DropBox with a couple  of friends, so that ‘if anything happens to me it’s not going to solve  your problems,’” he added. “WikiLeaks got access before he was killed.” 

Finally, the last story by Big League Poltiics, details how the lead homicide detective on the Seth Rich murder case was told to leave the Seth Rich case alone and not talk about it with anyone.

"He said privately that the Metropolitan Police Department gave him “strict, strict rules”  not to talk about the case “because of what this case is.” He said the  higher-ups in the department were very aware of the case and begged a  private investigator not to “throw me under the bus” because he feared  he would get “re-assigned” somewhere to “moving property around” if he talked about the case,"  Patrick Howley wrote.

These leaks completely open a whole new can of worms on the Seth Rich murder mystery puncturing holes in the already flawed narrative that his death was just a "botched robbery" and finally reveal Rich as WikiLeaks source as Kim Dotcom another close confidant to the international whistleblower organization said months ago.

According to Fairbanks this is just the start and there is still more to come grab your popcorn! It's all unwinding by the thread now.

DISCLOSURE NOTE: This reporter worked with Cassandra Fairbanks at @WeAreChange last year she was my former editor.

R.I.P. Seth Rich, American HERO

How many more 'Seth Rich's' is it going to take before people start to do something meaningful.
This is a great piece of work, as is the work of others who have dug into this story but still no one is held accountable and probably never will.
Big changes are needed dude.

Absolutely agree TremendosPercy! How the public can still remain blind, I have no clue, I chop it up now to just plain ol' willful ignorance.

Many people revel in their stupidity and ignorance these days and wear it like a
'badge of honour'. I don't watch a lot of TV but every time I switch it on there are halfwits and morons parading their shoe size IQ's
Don't get me started, I'm on one today 😉

Español? Es bunghole! Habla, blah habla, habla habla, habla bunghole...

According to a source close to the Rich family, Aaron works for Northrup Grumman, which was named as the fifth-largest defense contractor in the world in 2015. The source did not provide what his specific role is at the company.

This looks like confirming Cassandra Fairbanks' source:

Sy Hersh is a living legend!

The Syria redline /ratline and now this!

Can any journalist match Sy Hersh's sources? I doubt it, shit runs DEEP.

Yuge.

I probably came close I knew a lot of people before Twitter took the axe to my account. I still know a lot of people just harder to reach but they all got my email if my services are needed to contact. ;)

Gotta ask yourself though why Sy is not ON the record with this recording.
Where did his recording come from, who made it, and what was it in regards to.
Besides KNOWING all of this information in regards to Rich, WHO is going to do anything about it?
I think he's been whisked away and his family has been told that it's witness protection.
But if it's witness protection, why are people in the DNC like HRC, JP and DWS not doing a Perp Walk right now? This is cray cray! And even though the story won't go away, there are NO AUTHORITIES doing anything about this man's death. It's like some sort of Gang of criminals is intentionally trying to drive the public nuts...

Your analysis is spot on.

Let every day will give you joy and happiness, let your wishes come true. Believe that this is possible! One has only to think that the day will be filled with surprises, that's exactly how it will turn out. I wish you a productive day! Good luck to you on this wonderful day.

Great words of wisdom and thank you wishes are starting to come true and yes my day was filled of surprises I am now the content director at www.Coinivore.com aka @Coinivore. I wish you a good day to thank you!

Thank you very much)))

I don't understand why his brother is trying so hard to disrupt investigations into his death; it's an unsolved murder! Surely he should be extremely grateful that people are taking an interest in discovering the truth.

Do you think maybe he's being blackmailed?

Who knows his brother works for a cyber defense contractor story just took a weird turn why would his brother be covering up his death? TIme will tell as more evidence comes out this was a huge shocker no one expected this.

If you're still in touch, try and talk her into joining up.
She's great.

I would if Twitter didn't axe my communication a few weeks ago I lost all my friends, colleagues, sources and acquitances lol

Twitter has gone full 1984 in recent months. It's bizarre and worrying to witness.

Its fucking ironic they suspended my account with 1984 as the background..

Bastards. Rubbish like that it is why I'm here instead.

Not sure if it's any consolation, but that won't happen here.

Wasn't me I was busy that night.

Great to see this story has not gone away. It would be wonderful if the death of Seth would mean something .

Heroic dose of OSINT.
Thank you for the contribution.

Great article, thank you for sharing. I can't believe the MSM is STILL getting away with straight up lies that make no sense to the general public. Call something a conspiracy theory and boom you can "debunk" anything. Total Bullshit. Keep fighting the good fight.

Excellent post, greetings ..

The writers on here are weaker than a ice tea with no tea bag, andyou suckers are sucking up to awe inspiring mediocrity like this is the hand of a wordsmith at play, and what is all this begging for followers, if i follow you you follow me, lets play touch butt around the tree. Theres more talent with a crayola felt tip pen in kindergarden with autistic children. Dont follow me , theres more lyrical content in two of my sentences than your whole blog.

I work as a writer at Activist Post, Natural Blaze and used to work as a reporter at @WeAreChange, and I am the current content director at @Coinivore.

I am, a journalist with several years of experience and you? As for begging for followers, I lost my 9 year-old - 34K account on Twitter that was followed by several influential people, and groups. Including my - sources, friends, and acquaintances in the industry. I have broken several stories and leaked thousands of documents, including publishing the unredacted copy of Amy Berg's Hollywood Pedophile Documentary Film - "An Open Secret."

So anyway I'm successful sorry that YOU personally feel that way, I am doing something I love and enjoying life.

My advice I suggest building yourself and not being negative in life by attacking others for their hard work on this platform and in general life advice DON'T BE AN ASSHOLE. You may need anger management.

Also, I suggest using periods to finish your sentences that was one long drawn out rant with no value to anyone. :)

P.S. It's There's NOT Theres.

Hello again connected industry writer for the masses.

I can see by your reply that your most upset and I would like you to allow me the opportunity to apologise for absolutely.....

Nothing I said.lol

Your writing is the reason you used to be employed by we are change, and not still employed, I simply point out that you have an extreme lack of flair and humour behind the keyboard, in my opinion about the same amount of life is in your writing, similar to seeing a re-animated zombie corpse in the walking dead killed by Daryl Dixon after a binge on tinned foods, its the same old same old, where is your passion man.

Also, I think your story of a twitter account that you had for nine years was somehow lost is about as real as the tooth fairy, and would only add up if I had the brain capacity of a four year old displaying symptoms of a concussion after tripping over his wheetie's because I heard the mating call of livestock on a David Attenborough farmyard special for the first time, if you lost your twitter account, how did you do it? you can find your global Twitter account on google and follow the steps to get back in, and for such an intellectual professional writer who has a flair for spelling correctly I am sure you can find it, I doubt your 30k+ twitter account fell out of your pocket.

Dyson should name there new hoover after you, and call it the atmosphere hoover 2017 edition. lol

I am not angry about you personally, it is just your writing is as exciting as euthanasia for the brain dead, no feeling, no passion, and no remorse, and no individuality, you should have called your self Borg, assimilate with the shuttle of mediocrity my friend and you should be ashamed of calling yourself a professional when all my blogs are more entertaining than any of yours.

And you brag about illegal treason by leaking thousands of documents just lol at the level of Walter Mitty here.

I am not a fan of my Government, yet I would never betray my country, because that is what rat's do. You wear your treachery like a badge of honour yet I bet this is a lie like your dog eating your twitter account with "influential" people, your tickling me pink. The only thing worse than skinny jeans is a dis loyal non patriotic parasite, especially boring ones.

Don't get upset that you just got alphabetically smashed like the A B C badges on my fridge door when my disabled son Jeramiah bumps his head for being naughty for going cross eyed lol

Kind Regards

You just got served, theres irony here, ill let you correct my spelling for me, call me Daddy and I will help you out with ideas of how to reclaim your 9 year old 30k+ Twitter account that you "lost" with enough illegal leaks to make Edward Snowden hard in the depths of Russia lol

I didn't lose my job at We Are Change for my writing lol. That's far from the real reason, I lost it because of Youtube, Google, and Amazon cutting alternative media's ad revenue and we couldn't afford to continue the news operation.

Further, apparently, you lack understanding of the concept of being suspended by BIG SOCIAL my account was lost due to a suspension.

Finally, the last statement I will make is your "blogs" aren't more entertaining than mine or you would have more than 13 followers. I have only been here on Steemit for a month posting various articles and acquired nearly 500 followers in such a short time frame.

I am not the bragging type, I don't normally respond to people like you but thought I needed to help you out by giving you advice I flagged you and blocked you for being an asshole good day. :)

You and your sissy squad censored my reply, just Lol Paper thin sissys
