Seth Rich Murder Update: Owner of Bar Where Rich Spent Last Night Reportedly Visited White House 4 Days Before Murder

Guest post by Joe Hoft

Why did Lou’s City Bar owner – the establishment Seth Rich was at the night of his murder – visit the White House four days before the murder?

On July 10th, 2016, Democratic staffer Seth Rich was murdered in an upscale Washington DC neighborhood. Rich was talking to his girlfriend and then suddenly told her he had to go. According to his parents at 4:18am in the morning there were two shots fired. Police found Rich conscious and breathing but he died later in a hospital. The killer or killers took nothing from their victim, leaving behind his wallet, watch and phone.

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.”

A few weeks after Rich’s murder, former Head of the DNC, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, lost her position during the DNC Convention due to WikiLeaks emails being released that showed her efforts to enable Hillary Clinton to win the DNC nomination and steal the nomination from Bernie Sanders.

Because Rich reportedly provided emails to WikiLeaks there are many who believe Rich was murdered as a result. One reason for this belief occurred in August of 2016. At that time Wikileaks offered a $20,000 reward for information on the murder of DNC staffer Seth Rich. WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, in an interview alluded to the fact that Seth Rich may have supplied the emails that WikiLeaks leaked during the election last year.

There are numerous others who have offered rewards for information on the death of Seth Rich. Many believe that Seth Rich provided DNC emails to WikiLeaks shortly before his death and Kim Dot Com revealed that he has proof that Seth Rich provided the emails to WikiLeaks.

In emails released from WikiLeaks from Hillary’s creepy campaign manager John Podesta, it was clear that Hillary was upset about the leaked DNC emails.  An email written by Podesta notes that she [Hillary] “is whipped up on actual damage“. Apparently Hillary wanted to know all that that had been leaked as if she was hiding something with major implications.

A couple months later in February of 2016 the DNC was still talking about information being leaked. Podesta reports in an email released by WikiLeaks at that time that he was “definitely for making an example of a suspected leaker whether or not we have any real basis for it.”

Then a few days before Seth Rich’s murder some strange guests appeared at the White House. 

For the first guest it was probably not so strange that he visited the White House, but the timing is suspect.  On June 27th Hillary’s creepy Campaign Manager John Podesta visited the White House.  The timing of this visit is questionable due to the other visitors who followed him a few days later and due to the fact that he had already stated in an email that he was all for making an example out of a suspected leaker.

Another guest of interest that visited the White House at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building was none other than Bob Creamer.  Creamer visited on July 6th a few days after Podesta and a few days before Rich’s murder.  Creamer also visited the White House after the Rich murder on July 15th.

Creamer is famous for a video released in October 2016 by James O’Keefe from Project Veritas which reported that Hillary Clinton and the DNC actively planned for and executed violent protests at Trump events during the 2016 Presidential Campaign.  Creamer was interviewed by O’Keefe’s team and admitted to these criminal activities.  Additional information to support these allegations was released by WikiLeaks at about the same time as well.

The third and most interesting character to visit the White House before Seth Rich’s murder was the owner of Lou’s City Bar, Joe Capone.  He also visited the White House the same day and time as Bob Creamer the DNC instigator of violence at Trump rallies.

Although Creamer and Capone visited different locations at the White House on July 6th, there is no evidence that they did not meet at that time.  The fact that Creamer, known for performing violent activity for the DNC, and Capone, one of the last individuals to see Seth Rich alive, were at the White House at the same time four days before the murder appears more than consequential.   It would be very useful to find out who they met with and what was said.

As we now know, Seth Rich visited Lou’s City Bar and was shot in the back later in the early morning of July 10th.  What is questionable is that Capone placed pictures on his Facebook account about the White House visit and then he posted photos on July 11th of himself and his son fishing.  This begs the question – Why would he go fishing a few hours after a customer was brutally murdered outside his bar?

It’s also been reported that no employees of Lou’s City Bar where Rich was last seen were questioned about his final hours leading up to his murder by the police after the murder.

There are just too many questions that remain unanswered related to the Seth Rich murder case.  Attorney General Sessions should set up an investigation to look into this.  There is clearly much more to this case than the Trump – Russia investigation.

Seth Rich and America deserve justice.
