I don't know the sequence of the photos with any certainty, but in one of the bent arm pictures it appears rigor has started to set in and that is the position he was in--face down arm bent, head turned. I think they drug him around for a while. If they took him straight to the hospital, rigor wouldn't have started. Also, the pavers under him in the 1st picture don't match any pavers in photos that I have found in and around the burnt out/looted consulate.

They did say that. ‘His body would be presented in death as Gadaffi’ (i’m summarizing)

It was a Lebonese paper.

“It is also even more curious that the Obama Administration was in complete synch with the spokesmen for the protesters that this was all about some stupid youtube video and was even more in synch with the Egyptian leaders demand that free speech that offends the Muslim world must be outlawed and those that say things to offend Muslims must be punished.”

Anyone else believe that this is an attempt by the Obama administration to cause more strife by repeating this endlessly that it’s the video?

Ah just noticed something. In the other pictures his eyes are still open. But in this one they are closed. If he was already killed at this point it’s doubtful they closed his eyes out of respect.

That tells me he was still alive in those pictures where he was on the ground with his pants on and eyes open.

Irenic, if I look at the video, it appears the belt buckle is centered where it should be. There is one segment where you can see the glint of the buckle (around 50 sec.). In the picture you show, the belt is unbuckled. Then in the one where he is flung over someone’s shoulder, it appears his pants are down, or not on.

In all of the pictures, I would guess he is already dead. It appears rigor mortis has set in to the eyelids, the bent arm. In the video, his arm and body is motionless on the ground. He is either dead or knocked out, IMO.

I think he was still alive in that picture where his eyes are open.

And sometime in between that picture and the one where hes flung over the shoulder, he was killed. Because of his eyes

In the first picture his eyes are still open. But in the shoulder one they are closed. If he was already killed at this point it’s doubtful they closed his eyes out of respect.

Wouldn’t the redness of his back be caused by him being dragged?
His face being red would be from hanging down.

I can’t absolutely tell if his eyes are open or closed when he’s flung over the shoulder, but they look more open (like in the other two). Rigor mortis sets in first in the eyelids and neck. I would say he is already dead in the photos.

I was thinking maybe it was lividity/pooling of the blood. It won’t become fixed for some hours. The bright redness does go along with smoke inhalation, I think.

I think he was at least unconscious when drug out of the bldg.

I wonder how far the hospital was from the consulate? Do they have ambulances? I thought they did as last year Gadaffi was said to be in an ambulance but the world saw that he wasn’t and what happened.

Why didn’t they phone an ambulance for Stevens...IF they were only wanting to take him to the hospital? This whole mess stinks to high heavens.

While these pictures were being posted, Barry was yucking it up in Vegas. A disgrace. I despise him and his Administration. I haven’t heard a peep from Bill Clinton on all this.

Ah maybe you’re right. And now that I think about it.. even if they were closed in the over the shoulder pic.. the eyeslids could have moved when he was moved.

If you look at all three photos, you notice the guy in the black shirt and greenish pants (cell phone in his mouth) who is manipulating the Ambassador. He’s in all three photos. I think it’s 2, 1, 3 and probably pretty close toghether in time.

Somewhat graphic. The redness does look similar to the redness on Stevens.

There is a hospital in very close proximity to the Consulate. The “safe house”, I couldn’t find on the street map.

Consulate at Fourth Ring Road and in between Shari Al Andulus and the other main road to the East Shari something.

Hospitals from there, a mile or so.

Can you all imagine the horror this man went through? And it is all the fault of Obama the Marxist Muslim enemy of America. May this POS Obama be impeached for this and it's million other crimes against America, against the American people and against freedom. The evil media meanwhile blames Romney .

Obama acted like a dictator by giving Amnesty to a million illegals . A president has no power to do this. but it did it. It needs to be stopped and jailed. piled 6 trillion in debt on America to ensure its collapse and it committed a million other crimes.
