Fake Picture?

This picture of Prince Andrew and a 'friend', mid-way down the page:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-50633640

is doing the rounds in the British press, with questions raised about
its authenticity.

Given that the metadata and original photo are unlikely to be available,
and the alleged photographer is now dead, is it possible to conclude
whether it's a genuine photo from that image?

You need to read the entire article where the claim is made that the FBI has
had possession of the original since 2011.

It seems that this prince was a tad too fresh.

I didn't read that as meaning the photo was genuine. Or that the FBI was
sharing the original. Unless I've misunderstood?

Ah OK - so it is genuine then?

Well this is just another chapter in a Royal clean up of a mess that Andrew
doesn’t seem to be able to spin his way out of. I think a pretty good
indicator of the reliability of the accusations against him, and therefore
the authenticity of that particular photo, is the lack of support he has
received from his brother Chuck. Add to that the plug being pulled on his
official Royal duties & pay check.

Who are we to doubt a teenager’s memories when it comes to dealing with a
bunch of sleaze bag adults?

Well quite. I was wondering from a technical POV. So your answer is
'don't know', it seems.

Maybe if you knew the size of their heads.


Possibly - although the passage of time and events therein might have
caused one or other's head to swell :-)

Me niether and the only fact to prove is whether or not he had sex with sonmeone that was under age and that photo doesn't prove that he has or hasn;t so what does it matter.


Well me neither neither. It was more the technical art or science of
spotting a fake (any fake) that I was interested in.

Total sleaze-bag, yes.

But *not* under-age.

And 'trafficked' = what ? Was she kidnapped and forced to go to UK
against her will ? Looked pretty happy in the pic (which certainly looks
genuine).
