Something fishy about the assassination of the Russian Ambassador

Sorry guys, I'm very new to voat (today) but I also thought this stunk to the high heaven. No blood, but isn't it disrespectful to the deceased and his family to show such graphic pics? Besides that, what purpose could it possibly serve? Unless it's all bs to begin with.

The Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman said he was hospitalized with a gunshot wound.

Likely because he was rushed to a hospital and then pronounced dead at some point after the transport. These reports go off of official time of death.

Media outlets are generally careful to not report it as a death in the case that he is revived in the ambulance and lives. So the initial reports all were "Russian Ambassador shot" rather than assassinated. They are in a mad rush to get their story published because people want it immediately. They also get the traffic it generates obviously so they get the article out once they know the main points before getting all of the little details.

All of that being said IDK what to make of this yet.

There's something strange about the assassination of the Russian Ambassador in Turkey. If you look at the 7th of 8 image above in the link there are people walking away casually after a man was shot 8 times just feet away. The caption on the image reads "Guests leaving a gallery as a gunman (C) holds a weapon, during an attack where Andrey Karlov, the Russian ambassador to Ankara, has been shot. AFP/Getty Images"

That seems very casual considering there is an active shooter feet away shouting about aleppo. One guy even has his hands in his pockets on the right of the image. I have seen an unverified video which shows the shooting but with one of the paintings in the background switched which could mean that it was rehearsed. I will link that once/if I find an authenticated source for it.

And as a newbie who was never on reddit I learned to archive thanks to you guys so here is the archive link

EDIT: so the original link shows the image I'm referring to but unfortunately the archived page doesn't. Can someone from the community tell me how to embed an image in a post please
