Restaurant Portrait Beside a Surveillance Still

Side-by-side composite with a clear well-lit close-up portrait of a smiling young man indoors at a restaurant booth on the left, and a grainy lower-resolution security camera still on the right showing a man walking outdoors beside a concrete wall in a long-sleeve shirt with an American flag graphic, jeans and a light-colored baseball cap

What This Image Shows​

A two-panel comparison: on the left a clear, well-lit portrait of a smiling young man in a restaurant booth; on the right a grainy surveillance still of a figure walking beside a concrete wall in a long-sleeve shirt with an American flag graphic, jeans and a light cap. A price figure is faintly legible in the left panel, a residue of the original photograph's setting.

The restaurant portrait is the same personal photograph that appears elsewhere in this section as a stand-alone image, here pressed into service as the comparison reference. The pairing is the whole of the argument, and it is the pairing rather than either image that carries the persuasive weight.

Surveillance resolution of this quality does not support facial comparison, and the affidavit does not claim it does. Read the identification dispute at Stairs Guy and Stairs Guy Identity Gap, and see the other comparison graphics in this cluster.
