About

Procedural exhibit in Trial 2 that preceded admission of the brain stem cross-section; the court's requirement to crop the image reflected evidentiary balancing between probative value and the graphic nature of the content.

An unredacted photograph of John O'Keefe's brain stem, marked for identification in Trial 2 as Exhibit FFF. The court required defense counsel to crop the image to reduce its graphic impact before it could be shown to the jury; the cropped, redacted version was ultimately admitted as Exhibit 225.
