Numbered Marker 8 on the Grass Verge

What This Image Shows
A wire-service photograph of FBI Evidence Response Team members searching a grassy slope beside a roadway in bright sun, with long shadows from the trees behind. One agent kneels holding a bright orange collection folder; a colleague carries a ruggedized black tablet. The shirts read FBI and FBI EVIDENCE RESPONSE TEAM.
On the grass beside the kneeling agent is a yellow tent-shaped marker with the number 8 printed on it. That single detail is why this frame is worth more than it first appears: it fixes at least eight separately catalogued points along this stretch of ground on the day the search was photographed.
Wire photographs like this one are among the few contemporaneous records of the search that exist in public, because the official documentation has not been released. What the markers correspond to, and how the recovery of the rifle fits into the sequence, remain open. See Gun Discovery Sequence, Gun Dropped Location, and Discovery Delays.
