Reuters Releases Osama Bin Laden Death Scene Photos

Reuters has released death scene photos from the compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan that terrorist mastermind Osama Bin Laden was killed at on Sunday. The photos were taken by a Pakistani security official who sold them to Reuters and wants to remain anonymous.
The photos, taken by a Pakistani security official who entered the compound after the early morning raid on Monday, show two men dressed in traditional Pakistani garb and one in a t-shirt, with blood streaming from their ears, noses and mouths.
The official, who wished to remain anonymous, sold the pictures to Reuters.

Based on the time-stamps on the pictures, the earliest one was dated May 2, 2:30 a.m., approximately an hour after the completion of the raid in which bin Laden was killed.
Other photos, taken hours later at between 5:21 a.m. and 6:43 a.m. show the outside of the trash-strewn compound and the wreckage of the helicopter the United States abandoned. The tail assembly is unusual, and could indicate some kind of previously unknown stealth capability.
The White House had just moments earlier announced that they would not be releasing death photos of Bin Laden. Leon Panetta and others had stated before that they strongly believed the White House and President Obama would release death images of Bin Laden to prove his death.
Note: The Reuters link, story, and photos were off the Reuters site and deleted within 30 minutes of being posted by them. Something is going on or they got a message from a person very high up to pull them.
