Sandy Hook Puzzles
Perhaps the most unusual feature of
the Sandy Hook story is the large number of photographs that have been
released in order to document the story. It is as if there is no event
without the proof supplied by the photographs. This is unusual. When,
for example, the FBI murdered approximately 100 men, women and children
in the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas, the reality of the
victims did not have to be established with a large number of photos
establishing that the victims were real people with real families. When
workers “go postal” and shoot their coworkers, photos are not used to
prove that those killed were real people with real families. When an
airplane crashes, the event does not have to be verified with news
coverage of grieving relatives.
Yet photos are a defining characteristic of Sandy Hook. It is almost like the photos are the event.
The importance of Sandy Hook photos is
of concern when so many experts demonstrate that so many of the photos
are photoshopped. Among the Sandy Hook photos are photos that are
collages of separate photos that have been put together. Others have
people inserted into photos. There are a large number of YouTube videos
in which people knowledgeable about the techniques of photo alteration
demonstrate problems with the photographs.
In response to links I provided to Jim
Fetzer’s walk through of several events that have so many anomalies as
to raise suspicions, I received emails from people who have the skills
to analyze whether a photo is real or a construction.
Some of the explanations are too
technical for an inexperienced person to follow, but the photos below
are so problematic that expert explanations seem unnecessary.
This is a photo used to establish that
the little girl on the right, a Sandy Hook victim, is a member of the
Robbie Parker family. Notice that the two children on Robbie Parker’s
lap do not appear to have legs. Possibly the white material under the
torso of the little girl with her fingers in her mouth can be construed
as her legs, but it looks like material draped across Parker’s thigh. I
see no sign of legs for the child in the red jumper, and the purpose of
the red material draped across Parker’s other thigh escapes me. It is as
if the photo was lifted from a waist up photo of the two children and
placed on Robbie Parker’s lap. Notice that Robbie Parkers hands seem to
be inserted into his sleeves. Experts tell me that an enlarged version
of the photo reveals a straight line between Robbie Parker and the Sandy
Hook child victim and that this is a sign that the victim was
photoshopped into the photograph.
If this is indeed Robbie Parker’s
family, why would the family picture have to be a collage of
photographs? Why use a fake photograph to establish the identity of a
real family?
This is a photo used to establish the
reality of one of the teachers allegedly killed in the Sandy Hook
shooting. According to experts, there are many problems with this photo.
Without going into any of them, notice that the shadow of the woman on
the left falls to the southwest, but the shadow of the woman on the
right falls to the southeast. This suggests the photo is a construction
made from photos when the sun was in different positions in the sky. The
shadows associated with the woman in yellow do not seem to relate to
her, and the shadow in front of the standing man seems unrelated to him.
This photo is one of those used to
establish the reality of Adam Lanza. It comes from a joint photo of Adam
Lanza standing with his father. Experts tell me that this is a
photoshopped photo. The left side of his upper body has been cut out to
create the impression that he is leaning against the background, leaving
his left hand disembodied. Notice his jeans. His left leg is far
outside his left side body line and the jeans have to cut in sharply to
connect with his waist line.
This photo is one used to indicate Sandy
Hook school evacuation. There are several versions of this same photo
with the same woman leading the children but with a different child at
the head of the line. Other photos taken from further back show casually
dressed adults who appear to be parents watching a drill exercise. The
kids seem to be scowling or frowning from the bright sun, but the larger
girl in blue appears to be upset. Notice that she is out of line, that
the girl in white and pink behind her has her right hand on the girl in
blue’s shoulder (experts say that the hand is “painted on”) and that
there is a person wearing black pants between the two girls. How can
this be? Experts say that the girl in the blue top was photoshopped into
the photograph, perhaps to add the missing look of alarm.
Here is a close-up in which you can clearly see the kid who is in between the two girls.
To sum up. There are two questions. Was
Sandy Hook a drill that was turned into a public hoax by the use of
doctored photos in the interest of an agenda? If not, why are so many of
the released photos used to establish the reality of the event
photoshopped?
Why not instead produce the death
certificates of the murdered children if not photos? Why not prove with
utility bills, school bus routes, and other evidence that the school was
in operation and not closed due to numerous problems that the school is
claimed to have had?
Those unable to entertain suspicion of
government always insist that someone would talk and expose the
conspiracy. This insistence is extremely naive. Jobs and careers are at
stake and by now everyone has learned the fate of whistleblowers. There
are safer ways to talk. Just as the Soviet press developed ways for
readers to read between the lines, perhaps the carelessly faked Sandy
Hook photographs are an example of those drawn into a government
conspiracy “talking” by doing a bad job of producing faked photographs
in order to alert us to a hoax.
What is disturbing to me is that I do
not know if Sandy Hook is a real event or a hoax. In place of evidence
such as bodies, body bags, death certificates, we have what appear to be
faked photographs. Why?
Possibly there are other explanations
for the anomalies in the photographs. Regardless, Sandy Hook cannot be
decided on the basis of photographs alone. The problem I have with the
official story is that such a massive event would leave massive
evidence, and we have been shown very little evidence. Why can’t we be
allowed to see the evidence?
Moreover, the Connecticut government
refused to release evidence that would confirm that the shootings did
take place. As far as I can tell from an Internet search, the children’s
death certificates have never been released to the public. How can this
be a privacy issue when the names and photographs of the murdered
children are released? State authorities had to be ordered by a judge to
release even the 911 calls to the police about the event. Here is a New York Times report.
The best way to avoid conspiracy
theories is to do real investigations and to release real evidence.
After all the serious lies we have been told, governments cannot expect
us to simply be satisfied with their word for it.
If you look at the recent shootings and
terror events, one cannot avoid the impression that scripted stories are
instantly set in stone in the media prior to any investigation. The
explanation comes first and takes the place of investigation.
Perhaps the evidence exists and we are
not shown it because the government is training us to accept that truth
is what the government says, so evidence is not necessary to support the
story. In other words, government might be eliminating the belief that
truth exists independently of government’s statements and can be in
conflict with them.
Orwell’s 1984 is more prescient than farfetched, so we cannot dismiss this possibility.
