MAJOR INVESTIGATION: Who Killed Seth Rich?

 The Profiling Project, an all-volunteer group of current and former George Washington University forensic psychology graduate students and instructors, conducted an extensive three-month investigation of the Seth Rich murder.

Points made in their report:

The crime scene was very organized to the point of being sanitized. This would indicate careful planning on the part of the offender, control of the entry to and exit from the crime scene as well as in-depth understanding of law-enforcement investigative  processes.

----

That the crime-scene appeared to be almost sanitized (no firearms casings were reported to  be found, no physical evidence was reported) and that there does not appear to be excessive use of force (as only two shots were reported), the offender does not appear to be psychotic. Offender did not display excessive emotion at the crime scene, did not appear to act from hate, anger, fear, gain, jealousy or revenge, all motivations for murder.

----

We do not believe Offender is a robber, nor a robber who killed. Offender had the ability to kill, and brought with them an instrument to do so. Though we do not know what other items Seth may have had in his possession, his watch, phone, wallet and necklace were not stolen. Nor was Seth’s body reported to have been further accosted or degraded. With such a sanitized crime scene and no emotional indications, this is not Offenders first kill.

Findings
 – Not Likely, unless a toxin was introduced into Seth...

Analysis

 – The first hurdle this theory needs to overcome is that a professional killer would have  been the offender. Seth did not die at the scene. A professional killer, whose sole job would have  been to terminate Seth did not accomplish their mission prior to escaping. Positive toxicology reports would be needed to support this theory.

Further Information Needed to Answer This Question

 – Any forgiven substance in Seth’s system could support this theory. Any poison or radiation indications would support the  professional killer theory, as the killer would have known that once the matter entered the  bloodstream it would take effect.
