Seth Rich Family Attorney Now Denying Story, Fox News NOT Retracting --- WHAT'S GOING ON?

For what it's worth, i dunno what to make of this:
WASHINGTON, DC — A bombshell report by Fox 5 DC suggesting that DNC staffer Seth Rich was in touch with Wikileaks shortly before his death last year set the conservative media on fire earlier this week, but their only source has since backed out. 
However, the station hasn't made any attempt to retract their story yet, even though calls are growing for them to do so. Fox 5 DC made the bold claim that there was "tangible" evidence that Rich had contacted Wikileaks, even going so far as to say that the station had "learned there is new information that could prove these theorists right." 
Rich was killed last July in what police believe was a botched robbery. 
The claim that Rich contacted Wikileaks suggests that operatives working on behalf of Hillary Clinton murdered Rich in retaliation for leaking the emails, which led to revelations that the DNC was helping Clinton beat rival Bernie Sanders in the primaries and may have cost her the election. 
The claim also suggests that the widely held conclusion among federal investigative agencies that Russian hackers was behind the email leaks, not a low-level employee at the DNC, is completely wrong. 
Fox 5 DC based their story on one source: Rod Wheeler, a Fox News contributor and vocal President Trump supporter who once claimed that pink pistol-packing lesbian gangs were roaming the D.C. area preying on girls. 
Wheeler claimed that he had a source in the FBI saying that there was evidence on Rich's computer of his contacts with Wikileaks. The story fell apart almost immediately. 
As criticism mounted, Wheeler backtracked, saying that he didn't get his information from FBI sources but rather from already public news reports, and that there was a miscommunication with the Fox 5 reporter. 
Also, the report made the false implication that Wheeler was working on behest of Seth Rich's family. In fact, he was hired by a third party, who convinced the family to let him conduct an investigation on their behalf. 
Rich's family has since largely severed ties with Wheeler, although Wheeler claims that they remain tied via contract, and the family even issued a statement slamming Wheeler's claims as without merit.
so:

 -they had a story with the P.I. as the source

- P.I. is now claiming (to others) that there was a 'miscommunication' and he was 'just repeating what he had heard on TV'

- the station that did the story has tried to contact him to followup and he's radio silent -now everyone says they should retract the story.

Maybe it's just my suspicious mind but it smells like someone has threatened the P.I. and told him to shut up.

lot of weirdness surrounding all this.

we'll probably never know the truth.

Earlier this week, in a Hannity video clip with Rod Wheeler, the private investigator hired by Seth Rich's family, Wheeler stated that he was getting the run around from the police and FBI when trying to locate Seth's computer. Seth was known to be active on his computer while sitting at the bar (see image of report below in earlier thread http://ibloga.blogspot.com/2017/05/what-really-happened-to-seth-rich-he.html see images with Omaha ref/"On July 9 . . .===>"Seth Rich sat at hisusual spot in Lou's...sometimes he'd sit for long stretches nursing a Bell's and staring into a laptop."<===) .
Interestingly, a link to "Crime Watch Daily" provides an embedded video clip suggesting Seth's family had access to Seth's computer after his demise.

******some ?'s
If Seth's murder was simply a botched robbery - why was the FBI involved?
This morning, George Webb asks if Seth was coded at the hospital since he was awake and talking after he was shot.
Recall, the as yet unverified witness account of the 4th year medical resident allegedly attending Seth Rich at the hospital:

/pol/ has identified the security cameras that may have seen #SethRich leading up to his death. This footage must be made public. pic.twitter.com/EBiuObmkdN

Here is an archive link to a January 2017 WaPo article about his death

https://archive.fo/wmQbe

===>"Officials told the Riches that their son, who died at a nearby hospital less than two hours after being shot, didn’t know he’d been hit in the back by two bullets. He wasn’t in pain, they were told. But he was confused. When Seth Rich was asked where he lived, he gave a previous address, Joel Rich said.
“They were very surprised he didn’t make it,” Aaron Rich said emergency responders told him. “He was very aware, very talkative. Yep, that was 100 percent my brother.”
