Julian Assange: Seth Rich Was WikiLeaks SOURCE “Took Risk”

Shock comments from video of Julian Assange appearing on Dutch television program Nieuwsuur. Is Assange suggesting that murdered DNC staffer, Seth Rich was a WikiLeaks informant? Sure sounds like it!

Assange: Whistleblowers go to significant efforts to get us material and often very significant risks. As a 27 year-old, works for the DNC, was shot in the back, murdered just a few weeks ago for unknown reasons as he was walking down the street in Washington.

Reporter: That was just a robbery, I believe. Wasn’t it?

Assange: No. There’s no finding. So… I’m suggesting that our sources take risks.

Seth Rich’s father Joel told reporters, “If it was a robbery — it failed because he still has his watch, he still has his money — he still has his credit cards, still had his phone so it was a wasted effort except we lost a life.”
