As the story goes, a strange photograph was taken by the Douglas Studios in Houston, Texas, on January 24, 1950, of a halo-like light above the head of Rev. [[William Branham]]. Apparently, Gordon Lindsay took the negative to George J. Lacy, Examiner of Questioned Documents (who was not an employee of the FBI). Lacy was asked to determine whether or not the light could have been the result of improper exposure, double exposure, tampering during the developing process or retouching. This investigation concluded that the unusual brightness was caused by light striking the negative. | As the story goes, a strange photograph was taken by the Douglas Studios in Houston, Texas, on January 24, 1950, of a halo-like light above the head of Rev.
