Mods I don't know if this is okay or not, but the question of Kyron having gone to school that morning keeps coming up. I don't know if we have any witness that Kyron was seen other than one other child. His statement is not used at "last time seen". LE has stated TMH is the last person to see him and the time is 8:45. I think this is important. If no one recalls seeing him, is it possiable that the photo of Kyron standing at his desk is a fake? I am by no means an expert on Photo shop, but have found an article in Scientific American: Digital Forensics: 5 Ways to Spot a Fake Photo. While the article is good and gives some information we could compare too, their is a comment by a Dr.Ab*** Mal***

"You failed to point out the simplest and most obvious indicator: halination, the appearance of a halo around an object in a digital image. Halination frequently occurs when digital images are manipulated by identifying and/or sharpening edges, required for some cut and paste alterations. A good, if unresolved example, was the widely published photo of OJ in Bruno Magli loafers. The picture was taken with a film camera, not digital, yet a distinct halo was seen around OJ and his shoes."
I bring this up because if you look at the photo of Kyron, his right side or left side of the picture as you are viewing it, has a yellow shadow. This could be to lighting, but I have looked at all the other pictures taken of him and the shadows are not yellow, they are dark outlines. So if anyone here is an expert on fakes or Photo shop, please chime in here.
I am not good at getting photos in here, so if somebody could put the two side by side of Kyron in front of the project and the one without him in it, we may be able to discuss lighting and shadows and things that could be off or things that make it a real photo.
