What do you make of this creepy photograph?

UPDATE:

A guy from Websleuths has been emailing the local sheriff’s department and the official word is that this woman is an Iraqi homicide victim, the picture being taken in Iraq. That’s all they’re saying at this point.

So how’d a photo of it wind up in Lightyerfart, Oklahoma?

Knowing this, for some reason, makes me even sadder

I found the topic on the Websleuths board, and according to the person who wrote the Sheriff, she is dead, and she is Iraqi. It’s a long read, but the investigative process they went through is incredible. Post number 377, on page 16 is where writing to the Shreriff is first mentioned, and that person makes other posts regarding the correspondence several times in the following pages.

Allow me to be a bit more precise: we have not established that “our soldiers are gorehounds” or that noone gives a fuck she’s dead. That was what I was diagreeing with, not that she’s dead. I’ve thought that from the beginning.

That would explain the somewhat unusual garment she was wearing…not your average American girl’s choice, all that embroidery.

The guy who wrote the sheriff apparently has a much longer detailed explanation of the case. He’s private messaging the content to users of the site (Websleuths), but it won’t let me join because of my internet provider, apparently. Anyone know what this content of this letter is?

My wife is an active poster on Websleuths, so I asked her about it and she was very familiar with the whole thing. It also turns out the woman who wrote to the sheriff’s department in Oklahoma also posts on another similar message board where she and my wife are the administrators, and there has been some discussion of the “unreleased details” in the admin forum there.

The sheriffs department has not yet given permission to post the contents of their emails, but from what I’ve just seen, there isn’t really much there. I won’t say what it is here, but I guess if you’re interested let me know and I’ll shoot you a couple of lines.
