Lee Harvey Oswald backyard photos are authentic, new scientific study confirms

Another round of mainstream media 'news' today that might seem a little stale for Case Closed fans:

Researchers at Dartmouth College have published the results of a new examination of the famous 'Oswald brandishing his rifle' backyard photos in the Journal of Digital Forensics.  Relying on the latest forensics techniques and a 3D model of Oswald, the unequivocal conclusion "refutes the argument of photo tampering."  Read the full report.

This conclusion should not come as a surprise.  In an 'Author's Note' to the paperback edition of my 1993 book, Case Closed, I wrote:  “Time and technology have caught up to the conspiracy critics.
