I particularly like how in the first pic the shadow of an M4 can be seen.
looks like the cop photographer Sgt. Sean Murphy has been relieved of duty for releasing the photos.

Damn, That laser of a sniper's rifle trained on his head.

Im pretty sure that's not a shadow and it's an actual officer

Well that still leaves two options

I feel like I should point out almost none of the images in the thread are working for me and the only one I had seen when I posted was the one I quoted.
Dem abs...

If it were an officer he would be illuminated by the spotlight they have trained on Tsarnaev.

Plus, the shadow is only in one picture.
The best comment in the article gets it so right
[quote]If your objection is that the cover photo glamorizes Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and presents him as an enticing role model to young readers because of his looks then you’re rightly concerned about something that has nothing to do with Rolling Stone.
If your objection is that the cover photo humanizes Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and presents him as a multi-demensional -- even sympathetic -- figure, well you have just confronted one of humanity’s starkest truths: that we are all humans, endowed with a tremendous capacity for both evil and empathy. Again, your concern has nothing to do with Rolling Stone.
If your objection is that the cover photo of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev disrespects the victims of his alleged crimes because it focuses on the criminal rather than the crimes then you’re arguing for such a narrow view of journalism and journalistic priorities that the end product would probably do little to educate, enlighten, and engage readers.
If your objection is that Rolling Stone’s intention is to drive sales with sensational cover photos, well, yeah.
Then again, see the photos above, linked online, to drive traffic.[/quote]
