First, I'm the guy who took the photo of Ed Bradley and what I thought was his assistant. I had no idea it was Kim Roberts.
It most definitely was at the Washington Duke as I was over there to hit some golf balls that night when I saw Mr. Bradley. I returned to my car to grab my camera phone and asked Ed if I could take his picture. Kim was standing next to him and started to back away and I, again, assuming she was with the crew, told her to stick around.
As for the before or after question I can't answer with any certainty, but I would say that it sure seemed like it was before because Ed and Kimmie were standing around while the crew was scurrying about. They then all disappeared into the Inn and I didn't see them again.
Sorry for the confusion and the good folks over at Crystal Mess were totally unaware that it was Kimmie in that photo as I didn't know it when I sent it to them. In fact, NCLax assumed it was me - which is not the case since I'm not a convicted felon nor have I ever been a sex worker (well, there was that one time....).
I saw both photos many times and never noticed, either.
It was our furtive and secretive, but often informative poster xoxoxox who gave me the word to compare the pictures.
Too bad you didn't realize, would have loved an "after" shot.
I didn't realize it was her either. No one did. Thanks for the post, it's made me feel better about the whole thing.
