Description:
New York, New York personal injury lawyers represented Plaintiffs, Joel Rich and Mary Rich, who sued Fox News Network, LLC, Malia Zimmerman and Ed Butowsky personal injury and respondeate superior theories claiming that their son Seth Rich, who worked for the Democratic National Committee, was assassinated after Fox News leaked emails to Wikileaks.
Rich was shot in 2016 during what appeared to be a botched robbery in Washington, DC. Plaintiffs claimed that defendants “intentionally exploited this tragedy†to push a “sham story†that their son had been murdered for leaking DNC emails to Wikileaks — even though the U.S. intelligence community had blamed Russia for the hack, the lawsuit alleges.
