> It's more likely he was murdered for doing something he shouldn't have been doing rather than anything else. The area where he lived had no shooting in the past 16 years or so, and this young guy gets clearly murdered for no reason and not even robbed?
There had been a string of armed robberies in the area, which residents had been complaining about.

It also simply doesn't fit the mold of an assassination attempt.
Seth Rich was shot (twice) in the back, not the head, without a silencer.
In fact, he was conscious when police got there, and didn't succumb to his injuries until he was in the hospital 1.5 hours later.
