Now emergency responders, along with police and two local hospitals, are refusing to answer that basic question.
And the D.C. Office of the Chief Medical Examiner has reportedly refused to release Rich’s autopsy report.
WND asked officials with the D.C. Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department which local hospital its ambulance transported Rich to – MedStar Washington Hospital Center or Howard University Hospital. Both hospitals are located within a one- to two-mile radius of the shooting scene.
“We transported the patient, Priority 1, to a nearby hospital,” EMS’ public information officer Vito Maggiolo told WND Tuesday. “All further information regarding this ongoing investigation should be referred to the Metropolitan Police Department.”
Inadvertently confirming that Rich had not yet died when EMS arrived to transport him to the hospital, “Priority 1,” Maggiolo explained, is a term used to categorize patients who are in critical condition.
Maggiolo also told WND the ambulance carrying Rich took exactly 6 minutes and 40 seconds to arrive at the hospital from the scene of the shooting, at 2134 Flager Place. NW.
Howard University Hospital is three blocks east of the shooting site, and MedStar Washington Hospital Center is less than two miles to the north.
With so little traffic in the early Sunday morning hours, the ambulance could have brought Rich to either medical facility in that time period.

ok let me relay two things I know
. Seth Rich very well could have been alive and talking and died at the hospital later just from the original wounds. Then again he could have stabilized and then someone was sent in to finish him off. I mean he already had gun shot wounds. If he died from an injection to stop his heart, would anyone even be suspicious or catch it? Anyway, Im just saying the crudest form of murder (pillow over the head or injection of a drug) might be missed on a gun shot victim.

His name was Seth Rich.

yeah I fixed it. I think I just conflated Marc Rich with Seth Rich because I had been looking into Bill Clinton pardoning Marc Rich and James Comey being the prosecuting attorney that decided not to pursue Bill Clinton for pay for play pardon
