Drawing of Booth Body

[L Verge]

I have had one thought running through my mind ever since John first discussed his Lawrence Gardner find with me. Was the photographing of Booth's body scheduled before or after the corpse was identified by numerous people? If afterwards, there would be no need for a photo - they had the positive IDs necessary to confirm that it was Booth. And, things like broken bones, a scar on the neck (identified by the doctor who treated it), tattooed initials, and a stick pin engraved to Booth would seem better identifiers than a photo.
