These look Photoshopped to me.

Did they come out of the tranche of photos the oversight committee released? Or something you found?

So A, you take a photo of a girl who’s clearly not sleeping in a normal way and looks drugged.

And B, you keep it on your desk so you can look at it all the time?

And everyone who meets with just passes it off as a normal thing?

These sick fucks.
