1. Five photographs of Tuvia Oshri and Rahamim Aharoni (Gumadi), taken between 1979 and 1983. Both were part of the "List of Eleven", and were later convicted of the murder of Amos Orion and Ezer Cohen at the "Bar Bakar" factory they owned.
2. Three photographs of Shmaya Angel. Angel was accused and convicted together with his wife Sara, and Haim Shooshan, of the murder of drug dealers Shulamit Sheli and Michel Nachmias, and was sentenced to two life terms. After suspecting that Shooshan had turned state witness, Angel, with the help of Herzl Avitan and Yakov Shemesh, murdered him in jail. The hit song Rehavat HaRikudim, performed by Yehudit Ravitz and written by Yankale Rotblit, is about Shmaya and Sara Angel.

One of the photos features Mizrahi shaking hands with Tel Aviv Mayor, Shlomo 'Chich' Lahat.
