-- LOVE HEADQUARTERS, California

ENN has obtained exclusive access to these photos taken by Love HQ security cameras in the first few hours of 2005, when burglars attempted to steal Erik's underwear and other items.

Erik has confirmed that these photos show the burglary "exactly as it happened.  You can just tell that these photos aren't doctored at all."

At least two women are visible in what appears to be Erik's bed.  "There actually were five or six women there, it's just you can only see those two from this angle," Erik explained.

The photos have not yet been released by the Santa Barbara Police Department, who insist that their investigation is ongoing.

But at a press conference held today, one month after the attempted burglary, Erik said that he had positively identified the burglar using the security camera photos.

"Look at this photo," Erik told the throng of reporters who had gathered outside Love Headquarters.  "Look.  It's blurry, but I'm pretty sure who that is.  Yes.  It's him," Erik said, referring to Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro "Junichiro" Koizumi.  Koizumi has previously denied any role in the burglary, but with this new photographic evidence, Erik feels that the case is "open and shut.  These photos are completely undoctored.  They're real.  Realer than real.  This time, Koizumi, you've gone too far."
