FBI Was Court Ordered to Turn Over Documents on Seth Rich 14 Days Ago – For Some Reason They Are Refusing the Request… Why Is That?

[GatewayPundit] Yesterday the government asked for more time to respond to U.S. District Judge Amos Mazzant’s September 29, 2022 order directing the FBI to produce all records related to Seth Rich’s laptop. Somewhat relatedly, the FBI is withholding three reports produced by CrowdStrike in August of 2016 regarding the purported hack of the Democratic National Committee.

First the laptop. The FBI wants two more weeks so it can prepare a motion for reconsideration. As a courtesy, we have not objected to the request. According to the government’s motion, "the FBI is uncertain how to comply with the Court’s order as written, and the FBI is seeking input from a pending appellate consultation regarding the order to properly address this issue."

The order itself is pretty straightforward, at least with respect to Seth’s personal laptop, because it directs the FBI to "produce the information it possesses related to Seth Rich’s laptop and responsive to Plaintiff’s FOIA requests within 14 days of this Order." On the other hand, the order does not discuss Seth’s work laptop, which is also in the possession of the FBI.

I’m waiting for the FBI to explain what it thinks needs to be clarified, then I may be filing my own motion for clarification. Meanwhile, the FBI has cited only one narrow basis for withholding the records related to Seth’s laptop, namely his privacy. I’m not sure why it takes four weeks and an appellate lawyer to figure out why the judge did or didn’t get that issue right.

In any event, I’m reminded of something that I learned almost thirty years ago when I was a newspaper reporter: people with nothing to hide don’t try to hide nothing.

#2 Why is That? Because the DoJ has said it's above the Courts and do not answer to them...

#3 I don't know why? Complicity?

#4 Give them a break...
it takes 100's manhours to phony up that much data and make sure it jogs with other rewritten data histories.

#5 IIRC, FBI claimed at the time of Seth Rich's murder that Washington DC police had the laptop and DC police claimed the FBI had it. That's what you call the run around and it means that somebody is lying. So, at least now FBI admits they have possession of it. But then, if the murder took place in the jurisdiction of the DC police, why is the FBI holding evidence related to that murder? Is it because they don't trust the DC police not to spill the beans? Hey, I'm just asking questions.

#6 My hunch is there are names, emails, and social networks on that laptop hard drive that the deep state wants no one to gain knowledge of.

Yes, a blinding flash of the patently obvious....but It's wat I do.

#7 ^ It may be obvious, but that don't mean you're wrong.

#8 *IF* this all ever becomes unraveled, there will be hell to pay by the swap rats.

#9 Perhaps the laptop, like Hunters, is still marinating in the unpowered, Faraday cage with a certain low-level magnetic state. No one has ever actually done a cloning or CART recovery. Years may make recover a problem, but no one did anything illegal? ( Computer Analysis Response Team)
