Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Alec Eist
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) To support encyclopedic discussion of this work in this article. The illustration is specifically needed to support the following point(s):

His testimony and subsequent allegations

Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
The subject is dead and no free-use images of him exist or are now likely to come to light
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) It will be used only once in this article and in no other article; it is a 15-second clip of a much longer 2-minute video; no improvement work has been done.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
Too small and clipped—no improvements to the audio or lighting etc—to impinge on any possible though unlikely commercial value to the video's possessor.
Other information The subject is dead, so no more images of him will arrive, and no open-source alternative has been found; the clip is short enough to not damage the (possible) copyright holder's marketability of the clip.
