Obama not releasing photos
Washington (CNN) — President Barack Obama has decided not to release photos of Osama bin Laden’s body as evidence of his death, an administration official briefed by the White House told CNN today.
The decision settles the debate over whether to release the images, though Obama’s choice is sure to garner criticism.
Earlier, two top senators involved in national security said the photos of bin Laden’s corpse should be released.
