16. Exactly what I am saying...

The "tiny elliptical sheen" and the reflections off of the window panes and window shades, they're all perfectly normal. Exactly what you'd expect to see when photographing subjects against a reflective surface like a window. Every surface will reflect some light back onto the glass, which will be caught by the camera. It's really not that hard to understand.

As for it being "irrelevant," no, it is not. You can Photoshop a Martian landing on your granny's taint, but there are certain things that will always stand out. Martians #1, why you have a picture of your granny's taint #2. But then, there are shadow details, .jpg artifacts, shadows, cut lines. I've looked at this very closely, I see nothing unusual. And I'm usually one quick to bounce on the bullshit Photoshop threads. Nothing about this picture screams "Photoshop."

A small room with a central light-source gets you this effect. DetlefK Jan 2015 #1

I hope that was a joke. Atman Jan 2015 #6

I meant the tiny elliptic sheen above the mirror-image of the flash. DetlefK Jan 2015 #8

Nope. Flash reflecting off of the plastic window shade. Atman Jan 2015 #11

I agree with the poster above. There is the flash and also an ellipse of light above it CJCRANE Jan 2015 #15

The story just seems so outlandish AngryAmish Jan 2015 #25

Some were kids allegedly. IIRC there were at least 40 victims allegedly. CJCRANE Jan 2015 #42

He pled guilty to soliciting sex from a 14-yr-old. What more do you want? The details have been out WinkyDink Jan 2015 #53

Your post shows a lack of understanding about prostitution, sex work and sex trafficking. Brickbat Jan 2015 #63

I hear what you're saying, but I wasn't addressing these problems overall, which are globally underahedgerow Jan 2015 #76

She started working for Epstein when was 15. That's where the coercion comes in. CJCRANE Jan 2015 #65
