Wow. I got this correct but for the wrong reason (why my Algebra II and Trigonometry teacher, Mr. Madden, made us always show our work).
My first look was to White 30's left. At Forum members suggestions I switched my focus to behind White #30. I never thought to focus on White #30's movement to her right.
Clearly a violation. No need for a divider caliper, a Pickett Slide Rule, the Pythagorean Theorem, or a slow motion frame by frame replay. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Added bonus, it's an Audio Daily Double. White #30's right shoe squeaks on the floor as she violates.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times? No way, third time is always the charm.
