Hmm... I couldn't find any other references to the log-grabber or the story of NE faking the photo. Oh, well.
On another note... While looking at the picture (around the paint cans), I see for the first time the cigar box that belonged to JR.

I'll try to hunt down the reference I read about the fake photo. I'm trying to keep notes written as I go, but find even that task to be daunting in absorbing all the info out there about this case. Another poster sent me a message referring to a post that KK did on FFJ where she comments about the photo being "staged" by NE, but I am fairly sure the comment I made came from a verifiable source, or I might have dismissed the comment in my own mind. (The comment I saw also said the plaid blanket in the photo was a plant by NE)
NE did a great job of tending to details. I circled the cigar box reference in Kolar's book, pg 86 on my first read through the book, because I wanted to find more info about it. After snooping around, this is the most frequent type of reference I found - from ACR website:

9. "RE: Why-nut"
A poster on yonder forum posted today with she did tell Wilton there was a cigar box on the room but she did not tell him the contents. In today's post, she says the contents were cuban cigars. I assume those cigars were John's and he stored them in that room because it was cool and moist, a humidor of sorts. And that proves John probably went to the room with some regularity. That is probably the only significance that the box has.
Maybe FW thought he'd grab himself a smoke (would he have also known the box had cubans in it because he and JR had gone into the WC at some other time to sit and chat over a smoke?) and that is why he would have felt the need to go back down to the basement to 'take another look around the Wine Cellar' after JB had been brought up? No wonder there was interest in him having involvement - and I suppose there would have been, because the FBI and others have thought from the git-go there were "two hands" involved in JB's murder.
I used to think this case was like a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle of a 'Sky with One Little Bird' soaring in it. Oops - let's bump that up to 1000. Will any of us ever have enough time to work this one out? :banghead:
