The story that circulated this week about Seth Rich, the Democratic National Committee staffer who was murdered near his home in Washington, D.C., last year, has fallen apart entirely, leaving nothing but the most faithful conspiracy theorists clinging to a single FoxNews.com anonymous source.

The reports that went around this week alleged that the slain DNC data analyst was in contact with WikiLeaks prior to his death on July 10, 2016. WikiLeaks, of course, published thousands of emails pilfered from accounts belonging to DNC officials and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta, during the 2016 election.
