Photographs
Photograph in front of the Forum showing the tree grate and Martin Richard
Michelle Gamble identified Exhibit 1575 as a photograph in front of the Forum and confirmed that Martin Richard appeared in it. She described the railing as resting on the grate a few inches inward; the associated measurement addressed Richard's position in the picture rather than establishing his blast-time position.
About
