These are the names and the amounts of money seized from their bank accounts. Anything else familiar?
Backpage was a classified advertising website launched in 2004. Until its seizure by U.S. authorities in April 2018, it offered classified listings for a wide variety of products and services including automotive, jobs listings, and real estate. In 2011, Backpage was the second largest classified ad listing service on the Internet in the United States after Craigslist.
The site's offering of adult services sections had been highly controversial, due to allegations that Backpage knowingly allowed and encouraged users to post ads related to prostitution and human trafficking, particularly involving minors, and took steps to intentionally obfuscate the activities. After a series of court cases and the arrest of the company's CEO and other officials, Backpage removed the adult services subsection in the United States in 2017.
On April 6, 2018 Backpage and affiliated websites were seized as part of an enforcement action by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the United States Postal Inspection Service, the United States Department of Justice,[3] the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigator Division, with analytical assistance from the Joint Regional Intelligence Center.
Its CEO, Carl Ferrer, pleaded guilty to charges of facilitating prostitution and money laundering.

Perkins Coie is where Shawn Lucas served papers as a process server. Two days later he lay dead on his bathroom floor. I hope they dig deep.

Really? Because a cursory "CTRL-F" on this and I'm not finding anything "Perkins Coie" related. http://jampac.us/dnclawsuit/
RIP Shawn Lucas... although I'm skeptical that the "cabal" would go after the person who served the papers. The legal process had already begun, it's not like killing Lucas would be tying up any loose ends.
Seth Rich on the other hand.......... they sure "made an example" out of the suspected leaker, didn't they?

Maybe he saw something, or did a little side research. Happens all the time.
