Recently, the American Pamela Minchue, who works in the Police Department of the city of Cleveland in Texas, published a very unusual photo on the social network "Facebook". In this mysterious photo, a law enforcement officer stands and smiles near her patrol car, and next to her is the translucent figure of another police officer, a man.
At the same time, the ephemeral law enforcement officer is wearing a uniform that American law enforcement officers have not worn for several decades. Maybe the spirit of a certain officer decided to materialize on purpose in order to be photographed with his colleague from our days?
Site users quickly picked up this image and spread it over the Internet. Many believed that Minchu, by chance or not, was photographed with a real phantom. How else to explain the ghostly figure in the picture, through which the grass and trees are visible? Couldn't the officer have used a photo editor to play a trick on the regulars of the World Wide Web? In addition, Pamela did not leave any captions for the image, which added even more mystery to her publication.
However, the reality turned out to be very mundane. It turned out that the woman had actually retouched the photo, but not with the intention of hoaxing. The picture next to the American depicts her late grandfather in his youth, who was also a policeman.
After the image was scattered on other sites, Minchu still signed the photo. Her message reads: “This is not a ghost. Many people thought it was a ghost, but they are wrong. This is my grandfather who died a few years ago. He also served in law enforcement. I wanted to honor his memory so much, depicting my guardian angel, because I constantly feel his presence next to me and his help, moral support (especially in difficult times). Therefore, I ask me to understand and not spread false information. I don’t want children to be scared when they see this harmless photo, which shows a very good and brave person.”
