• This is one of the only known images of Brian Douglas Wells, a public figure
• Including the image adds significantly to the articles on Death of Brian Douglas Wells because it identifies the perpetrator.
• As Wells is now deceased, obtaining a free image will probably be impossible.
• This photograph is a Pennsylvania state driver's license photo, the original source credited by the numerous news organizations publishing the image. Therefore, the usual reason for not using photos from news organizations (avoiding direct competition, which could jeopardize fair use) does not apply here. Instead, the same fair use rationale applies as with {{ir-Mugshot}}.
