In this video, at about 15:45, Burkman who is a top D.C.lobbyist running the Profiling Project...says he has confirmed that Seth Rich was taken to George Washington University Hospital. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7iszcVK5SBI
"I got one piece of evidence you might like. We do KNOW the hospital was George Washington University Hospital. I was approached a week ago by a woman who...I dont know to describe her...she's actually very afraid for her life...I'm not sure why...but shes afraid to get involved in this. She is a federal contractor in the health arena....and its Geroge Washington hospital. She's actually conducting a bit of her own investigation trying to find out who these doctors were who worked on Seth. But thats a group who does not want to talk and right now thats all we know."
My god...how is this even an investigative team? They are claiming truth based on something an anonymous woman SAID? Where is the proof? Its careless to even go out and publicly state something like that so bold and say he KNOWs its GWU hospital, simply cuz a woman who fears her life said so? If he had proof, he would have shared it, but nothing other than her word.
So lets take a look at something. If you look up directions from Flagler St where he died....Medstar Hospital is 3 minutes away and has a Trauma Center. Someone could literally have just walked him over there, thats how close medstar is. https://www.mapquest.com/directions/from/us/district-of-columbia/washington/20001-1613/2134-flagler-pl-nw-38.919040,-77.013750/to/us/district-of-columbia/medstar-washington-hospital-center-355373924 We know they can treat gun shot wounds cuz they flew Scalise there of all places.
Howard University Hospital is also 3 mins away and walking distance, but while they do have an emergency room, they don't have a trauma center that could have operated on Seth.
George Washington Hospital is 12 mins away. https://www.mapquest.com/directions/from/us/district-of-columbia/washington/20001-1613/2134-flagler-pl-nw-38.919040,-77.013750/to/us/district-of-columbia/george-washington-university-hospital-278508732
Why would they pass up MedStar Health, who is superb enough to fly in a congressman who was shot, and drive seth for almost ten more minutes to a further hospital? I mean surely Medstar wasn't jam packed with emergency operations at around 4:30am. Wouldn't it make most sense to take him to the closest hospital that can treat the patient who had just been shot multiple times? Or were paramedics just wanting to take a scenic route? This just does not make any sense. Especially considering all the ties people have discovered with Medstar and Podesta with Jack Sava, Bonnie Levin, and Jen Palmieriri's sister. So why is this investigator stating he "Knows" the hospital...but provides no proof. Is he part of the problem and trying to take attention away from Medstar? I woudn't doubt it after seeing this same Lobbyist is also claiming Seth Rich's murder was linked to Russian operatives. http://www.fox5dc.com/news/238926113-story
Something aint smelling right here. Just cant imagine making a decision to take a gun shot victim in critical condition to not the nearest hospital to treat him at, but one almost ten minutes away. Pretty ballsy for them to do that to someone in need of an immediate operation. While I do appreciate profiling projects suing for more info on Seth Rich...I am just shocked at how he can go on a press conference and confirm its GWU Hospital, based on some woman who told him so a few days ago. He calls it "Evidence" too. Not sure I can trust reporting from a guy that careless, especially one who is a top D.C. Lobbyist.

Jack Burkman went to Georgetown.

That says a lot.

Upon some brief research, he could go either way. No obvious red flags other than Georgetown

I would always question anything coming out of the mouth of a Lobbyist.

He supports NeverTrump Neocons, and has tried pushing the Russia narrative several times.

Nothing surprises me anymore. I had reservations about him from the beginning, but thought the findings of the College Researchers was pretty good. Now I don't know, not so much.

I'm actually reading through the report now. Before finishing, consider how fast Hannity was pulled off the air when he started talking about the SR story. Some facts surrounding the story are off limits for the public eye IMO...but the MSM needs something to show they aren't ignoring the most recent buzz about the case, because for the moment that would look suspect.
Brad Bauman has been called "a professional Democratic crisis public-relations consultant who has frequently criticized President Trump." No surprise there, send in a crisis management guy, it WAS during the election year and PR is key, especially for someone like Hillary.
Bauman is the former Executive Director of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. In that capacity, Bauman oversaw the legislative, communications and political operations for the second largest caucus in Congress. Prior to that, Brad served as Communications Director for various members of Congress and numerous targeted Congressional campaigns Brad was named a Rising Star in American Politics by Campaigns and Elections Magazine in 2004." Right, send one of the best to manage the crisis coverage.
So all that didn't prevent the public's concern about the DNC having a possible motive to kill SR if indeed, he was a source for WikiLeaks.
And like a gift of Manna from the PR heavens, the Profiling Project drifts down with such an air of investigative lingo. But this work also stems from a crisis management company.
Selig Multi Media, Inc. is the parent company of Profiling Project and also owns PR News Channel (PP and PRCN together serve as a training ground for up coming PR grads).
From Oct 4 2016: "Comments from crisis management expert Glenn Selig were featured in this week’s “Us Weekly” cover story on the bombshell breakup of Hollywood’s power couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
“I am very proud to have been called by “Us Weekly” to offer my expert crisis management opinion on the public relations impact of this public breakup on the careers of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie,” says Mr. Selig.
With a circulation of over 2 million, “Us Weekly” is an influential weekly celebrity and entertainment magazine based in New York City.
Mr. Selig is the strategist-in-chief at the global public relations firm, The Publicity Agency. He is an award-winning former TV news anchor and investigative reporter who enjoyed a successful 20-year career in news before starting The Publicity Agency (TPA) in early 2007. Mr. Selig and The Agency have been involved with some of the biggest crisis management PR cases in the U.S. and many notable, national and international publicity campaigns."
Why continuing input of Expert Crisis Management for a murder investigation about the 'failed street robbery at 4:30 am" (rhetorical question). We had round one, Bauman, a loyal MSM, and the NeoCon supporting Burkman's involvement with his "reward" money, but now also we have the Selig Multi Media Inc. involvement, again with Burkman.

"Effective crisis management handles the threats sequentially. ....As a process, crisis management is not just one thing. Crisis management can be divided into three phases: (1) pre-crisis, (2) crisis response, and (3) post-crisis. ...Ultimately, crisis management is designed to protect an organization and its stakeholders from threats and/or reduce the impact felt by threats."

There is always so much on here, and I mean to get back to reading, but am distracted as usual. Thanks for reminding me to finish the report. If they have hired a crisis control co. there seems to be more to this than they are letting on. As we well know. You have and are doing really great research on this and I thank you for that. Unless people are use to doing research they don't know how long it can take.
