WASHINGTON (AP) — A 27-year-old man who worked for the Democratic National Committee has died after being shot in northwest Washington.
Police say Seth Conrad Rich died Sunday after he was shot multiple times. Police say the shooting happened around 4:15 a.m. Acting Capt. Anthony Haythe of the Metropolitan Police Department’s homicide branch said at a news conference Monday morning that Rich lived in the area. Haythe says there were no witnesses, and police have no suspects. He says investigators are looking into all possible motives.
Rich’s title at the DNC was voter expansion data director. In a statement, DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz called Rich a “dedicated, selfless public servant who worked tirelessly to protect the most sacred right we share as Americans.”

WTF??? Now they’re hunting DNC employees? This is horrifying.
I’m guessing either random robbery or jealous lover, either his or his lover’s other lover.
We don’t know that. More than likely a random incident. Maybe we will never find out.
I’m waiting for Von Clownstick to scream it was an illegal alien…or a terrorist…or a ni(CLANG!).
He was from my state, NE, had worked on a couple state level campaigns, worked thru the ranks fairly quickly before advancing to the federal level. Good natured, respected.
