r/Tupac

The 1997 leaked autopsy image was hotly debated over the past 29 years. Tupac's apparently missing Makaveli neck Tattoo was a smoking gun for some who said "this isn't real".

The new images recently released prove the fact that the 1997 image is genuinely Tupac on the coroners table ...at least partially. The suturing on the chest, the plastic tubing across his collarbone match between the photos perfectly. There is no doubt the official coroners photos and the "unofficial" leak are both of Tupac.

However, as some others have pointed out, an anomaly exists. In the official photos, he has hair. In the 1997 leak, he's bald.

Either, the coroner shaved his head (which according to all sources I can find isn't something normally done) or the 1997 photo was partially edited by persons unknown.

Why would it be edited? Looking at the new photos, that becomes clearer now. Tupac didn't look like Tupac anymore. He was swollen and had grew (a reasonably significant amount of) hair. Other than the tattoos, you could say that was anyone. A hypothesis recently floated is that someone in the chain of custody of that photo chose to edit the 1997 image to increase the saleability of the image.

It also gives a clue as to who actually took this image. Only a certain amount of people had access to Tupac, some policemen did and they even took photographs to be used in a training book (which was promptly destroyed). I find this so disgusting that I can barely stay within the rules of the sub when discussing this.

Somehow, the mystery photographer managed to come prepared with a camera (not small in 1997) and happened to be left alone between stages of Tupac's autopsy happening. All very convenient for someone willing to sink so low as to take an image like this and pass it on for publishing.

What do you think, is the 1997 image entirely authentic or retouched? How did the grim photographer get so lucky?

Do you think that he will get a life sentence? What did you think of all the interviews that he did on YouTube? Did anyone read his book if so what did you think of it? Do you think that he is telling the truth about what really happened? Why do you think that he really did all those interviews on YouTube?

Does Las Vegas Police have the Green jersey pac was wearing when he got shot? 🤔

I don’t have it, I seen them on twitter. I can’t believe I seen the actual autopsy photos of the GOAT. The biggest inspiration, the icon himself 😔😭 damn man. They did my boy wrong. Rest in peace Pac.
