It seems counterintuitive that we doubt the ethicality of an image and story such as that of Fabienne Cherisma when the methods and taking of such images are why we can learn about these stories in the first place. January 10th, 2010, Haiti was affected by a 7.1 magnitude earthquake and from the destruction rose a sense of lawlessness, looters, and death. In the case of the photograph of Cherisma, there is debate whether or not her death was intentional on the part of police forces, who had come in to put a stop to the looting. Happening roughly nine days after the initial earthquake, this shooting brought along with it attention towards the country, and whether her family liked it or not, the end of Cherisma’s life. While some may say that this story, and the photos surrounding it take attention away from the recovery of the Hatians, it is more likely that people who read and hear about it will be pointed to the causes behind it. Thus granting them greater publicity, and hopefully, more aid to assist in their recovery beyond the initial destruction.
