Lee Harvey Oswald Rifle Photo

A professor of Dartmouth College have made new analysis of controversial snap of Lee Harvey Oswald in which he is shown holding a rifle in his backyard. Oswald is the man who was being charged of shooting the President John F Kennedy in 1963. In that photo, he was in the backyard of his home holding a rifle in one hand and Marxist newspaper in the other.
Hany Farid, director of the Neukom Institute for Computational Sciences, Dartmouth claims that the shadows were exactly where they should be. He is a famous analyst who uses Digital Forensic tools and often works with the law enforcement authorities. He said he had requests to analyze the photo for years but he did not start working on it unless he had a Software to create three dimensional models of Oswald’s head and surroundings. After getting desired software, he started working on it and made three dimensional images and proved that a single light source can create both a shadow falling behind Oswald and to his right and one his nose.

“Photo is fake is incorrect,” Farid said Thursday. “As an academic and a scientist, I don’t You can never really prove an image is real, but the evidence that people have pointed to that the like to say it’s absolutely authentic … but it’s extremely unlikely to have been a fake.”

He spent about two months off and on analyzing the Oswald photo.

“I felt because it’s the Kennedy assassination and because there’s so much history about this, you really want to answer this correctly,” he said. “You don’t want to make a mistake on something of this magnitude.”
