I don't think it is a mess at all. I think anyone who evaluates the evidence with an unbiased and intellectually honest perspective will see that what is laid out in the video is what happened. It really is quite clear what took place.
Hersh was not on board with this information getting out. He is working on a story to expose this, and you realize people have been killed over this information? He also has a source to protect, who was put at risk of exposure with this video. No, Hersh would say it wasn't either way, so that is irrelevant imo. The only way to determine it's validity is to see if it matches up with other bits of information that have come out through other sources. And it does, incredibly well. If this was a hoax they got extraordinarily lucky with their information, not to mention have the best impression of Hersh I've ever heard a human being do haha.
“WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange, are uniquely positioned to confirm the truth: that neither [Aaron] Rich nor his brother ever provided any documents to, or received any payments from WikiLeaks or its agents,” reads the most recent filing by Aaron Rich’s lawyers. “However, despite multiple attempts through various channels over more than a year, Mr. Rich has to date been unable to serve a subpoena on WikiLeaks or Mr. Assange — or even confirm an address or agent on whom to serve a subpoena on them — as the former does not have a known physical location for service of process and the latter had been under the protection of the Ecuadorian Embassy prior to his more recent incarceration in the United Kingdom.”
Aaron Rich’s lawyers declined to comment further on the motions. Twitter declined to comment on whether it would comply with a third-party subpoena intended for WikiLeaks. A U.K.-based lawyer for Assange, Jennifer Robinson, did not respond to a request for comment.
In March 2018, Aaron Rich sued a former Fox News pundit and a pro-Trump blogger for defamation after they made statements accusing Aaron of participating in the DNC hack with his brother and taking money from WikiLeaks. (The two defendants denied many of Rich’s allegations but failed to dismiss the case. A trial is tentatively scheduled for June 2020.)

Did Julian Assange (Wiki-leaks) receive the thumb-drive containing the e-mails without knowing it was Seth Rich who off-loaded them from the DNC server?
Great analysis with a logical conclusion Dr1234! (S&F)
He did not receive the physical thumb drive. He uploaded it to Dropbox, which is essentially a google drive like application. Think of it as a way to store files on the internet instead of locally on your computers hard drive. That way the files can be accessed by anyone with the link, and in this case, the password. Seth emailed Wikileaks with samples and offered to sell the rest of the emails he had. It seems to me he was killed before finalizing the deal, but as he said in one of the emails Hersh mentioned, he gave the info to a few friends. Judging from what he told Ellen Ripley (that it was Seth and Aaron) and the fact that the Rich family is so against people spreading the idea the that he was the leaker, i think it safe to assume Aaron got the password to him after Seth was killed. Either that, or he sent them the second batch of emails that came out later in November.
Thank-you! Hopefully enough evidence is in the hands of the DOJ/Intel to prove that his murder was more than just a random street killing. (I hear Donna Brazile was at the hospital shortly after his arrival. To make sure he was dead?)

You've not completed this analysis
A UK ex-diplomat - Craig Murray - is on record stating that he personally picked up the files in Washington DC and delivered them to Wikleaks. He is a long time friend and associate of Julian Assange.

I definately buy into that side of things, that the download was local, not a hack. And as the expert that the OP included in his video seemed to say was easy to confirm one way or another (that bit was a bit technical for me, so If I misunderstood, please, someone correct me).
But, it is also nagging me. They can't catch three street robbers who shot a man in the street despite claiming to be expending considerable effort to do so and there being a $280,000 reward, but they pick up 12 Russians like they're laying around like fallen leaves just waiting to be raked up?

google the download rate of the hack , it was way to fast to be done remotely . It was a thumbdrive .
Knowing that the entire Russian Collusion narrative started as a blatant lie to cover up a political murder really makes every subsequent actions the deep state took make perfect sense and is the context everything needs to be examined under.

I'll see your Seth Rich speculation and raise it with Jamal Khashoggi and Qasem Soleimani evidence.
Honestly, it was probably the bullet that killed Kennedy and a bunch of others, and then traveled in time, that killed Rich.
It seems a bit incongruous that speculation by people who had no part in the case, is considered stronger than the denials of those who were involved in the case, but deny there was any such evidence.
Did you even watch the video? It is funny how you assume that human beings can not lie. Tell me something, if one of your family members was killed for being involved in a leak that you helped with, would you go around bragging about the fact that the two of you were responsible? If they know they are dealing with a group that is willing to kill to cover things up, do you think it is outside the realm of possibility that they are intimidated and have no reason to further provoke them?
Anyway, you did not address a solitary piece of evidence I presented. I bet you didn't even watch the video. It is all corroborated in multiple sources, there really is no ambiguity.

Did you watch the video out of curiosity? Sorry, I just saw what you said. It was absolutely local. I think they couldn't catch them, because they caught them. There is a good chance those two ms13 members that turned up dead shortly after Seth were the hired goons. Why do you say 3? The police told the Richs they saw 2 pairs of legs on the camera.
