This is related to pizzagate because there was a thread here a few days ago drawing attention to Seth's mom holding a stuffed panda bear in the CBS video statement by Seth's family released shortly after Seth's death. The consensus was that panda bears are a pedophile symbol, but I would just like to offer another hypothesis:
Seth's Mom was holding Seth's favorite panda bear, Bamboo, as a message to the viewers that Seth's death had to do with his love for pandas and his political views, with which panda bears are associated, namely, with the Bernie Sanders campaign.
A screenshot from the video here: https://i.redd.it/0cmv17a9mpyy.png
Seth Rich loved panda bears as noted by this co-worker:
"He loved pandas. There was a tiny stuffed panda named Bamboo that Pratt (his boss) would always try to hide around my desk and other places in the office. Seth would often come over just to chat, but sometimes he would be looking around a little more purposefully, knowing that Bamboo had disappeared recently."
Another co-worker offered this recollection of Seth:
Seth was goofy and gentle and funny and kind. He was joyful and silly. He was the first person to volunteer himself for every humiliating office stunt. This often involved a panda suit, but it could just as easily require a bizarre mask, an ugly sweater, or his now-famous Fourth of July ensemble. He had the most strangely decorated cube at GQR…while others hung calendars and white boards, visiting Seth’s cube was like visiting a little kid’s playroom.
When we threw a birthday party for GQR’s quirky panda-loving office manager, Seth came to work dressed as a panda (of course.) Any other self-respecting adult would not have agreed to do it in the first place—or at the very least would have worn normal clothes to work that day and just changed into the panda garb for the party. Not Seth! He was a panda all day.
I can't remember where I saw this mentioned, but could it be that Seth's mom was holding Seth's favorite panda bear, "Bamboo" in the video? If so, could she possibly be sending a subliminal message since panda bears were the unofficial mascot of the Bernie Sanders campaign with which Seth had great sympathy?
This tweet is one example of the panda symbolism used in the Bernie Sanders' campaign:

It is thought that Pandas4Bernie, was Seth's website and this was Seth's FB page:

Could she be trying to send the message that his untimely death had something to do with the Sanders campaign? Just wondering.
I wish I could figure out what is on Seth's Mom's t-shirt. All I know is if Seth had been my child, and I knew foul play was involved but couldn't speak publicly about it, I'd find a way to let people know, and perhaps that is what Seth's Mom is attempting to do in this video.

I am new here and maybe people won't give me as much credibility as an established poster. If you could post it I would appreciate it greatly since you started the topic anyway!
By the way, I learned today that Pandas4Bernie was not Seth's account -- at least that's what someone came forward to claim. They are posting at Twitter today in response to Kim Dotcom's letter to the family and they are on the "right side".
