The picture was a self-mocking gag sent to dozens of others, including a reporter, and Jill Kelley was a family friend.
The Seattle Times reports:
Kelley, a family friend, first contacted Humphries about the emails, according to Humphries and news reports. Humphries referred Kelley's complaint to the bureau's cybercrime unit and was not directly involved in the investigation, according to the sources...
Humphries, 47, confirmed the photograph exists and was sent to Kelley and dozens of other friends and acquaintances in the fall of 2010, shortly after Humphries had transferred to the Tampa office from Guantánamo Bay, where he had been an FBI liaison to the CIA at the detention facility there.
Indeed, among his friends and associates, Humphries was known to send dumb-joke emails in which the punch line was provided by opening an attached photo.
