Kim Dotcom Issues Statement on Seth Rich’s Involvement in Wikileaks

Internet mogul and house music enthusiast Kim Dotcom issued his long-awaited statement on Seth Rich. Dotcom, who hinted that Wikileaks possessed damaging information on Clinton before any leaks had dropped, claimed to know murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich had been the source of the leaks.

Dotcom’s statement will be seen as a let-down to many, as the statement does not provide information Dotcom hasn’t already shared.

Others will rightfully point out that Dotcom had advance knowledge of the Wikileaks, which corroborates his claim he had been in contact with a source.

Kim Dotcom’s full statement regarding Seth Rich is below.

I KNOW THAT SETH RICH WAS INVOLVED IN THE DNC LEAK.

I know this because in late 2014 a person contacted me about helping me to start a branch of the Internet Party in the United States. He called himself Panda. I now know that Panda was Seth Rich.
Panda advised me that he was working on voter analytics tools and other technologies that the Internet Party may find helpful.

I communicated with Panda on a number of topics including corruption and the influence of corporate money in politics.

“He wanted to change that from the inside.”

I was referring to what I knew when I did an interview with Bloomberg in New Zealand in May 2015. In that interview I hinted that Julian Assange and Wikileaks would release information about Hillary Clinton in the upcoming election.

The Rich family has reached out to me to ask that I be sensitive to their loss in my public comments. That request is entirely reasonable.

I have consulted with my lawyers. I accept that my full statement should be provided to the authorities and I am prepared to do that so that there can be a full investigation. My lawyers will speak with the authorities regarding the proper process.

If my evidence is required to be given in the United States I would be prepared to do so if appropriate arrangements are made. I would need a guarantee from Special Counsel Mueller, on behalf of the United States, of safe passage from New Zealand to the United States and back. In the coming days we will be communicating with the appropriate authorities to make the necessary arrangements. In the meantime, I will make no further comment.
