Kim Dotcom knew Seth Rich, claims to have been involved with the Wikileaks submission - will give statement Tuesday
Kim Dotcom, from Megaupload fame, claims to have information regarding Seth Rich as a Wikileaks source after Seth was brutally murdered
It all began with a tweet by Kim on May 19th:
If Congress includes #SethRich case into their Russia probe I'll give written testimony with evidence that Seth Rich was @Wikileaks source.
Kim has been known to make some outlandish claims regarding his knowledge of political matters. He claimed to have substantial information regarding the DNC leaks last year - but nothing to show for it. However, Kim is a very wealthy and connected man with a strong history of supporting freedom for journalists.
When asked about evidence to support his claims, Kim responds "I'm the evidence!!". He follows up mentioning his connections to Seth Rich and his knowledge that Seth was the Wikileaks source:
I knew Seth Rich. I know he was the @Wikileaks source. I was involved.
This is really big news if Kim can back this claim up. He mentions that he is meeting with his legal team on Monday so that he can share his knowledge properly. Kim certainly sounds serious, I have followed his tweets for a while and this is Kim serious. This is all following Reddit admins editing Seth Rich posts.
How could Kim have been involved?
Simple.
Seth -> Kim -> Julian (Wikileaks)
Seth gave Kim DNC information who was able to pass along to Wikileaks. Kim certainly has the opsec required to safely submit to Wikileaks, this is a likely possibility for information flow and explains Kim's involvement.
Stay tuned for Kim's statement on Tuesday
