How courts have described this case

- where drug purchase had occurred only a short time earlier, the police had a good reason to show the officer a single photograph rather than take additional time to assemble a full array
- no due process violation because the defendant did not show unfair suggestiveness based on the fact that the officer identified the defendant from a single booking photograph upon his return to the station after an undercover drug purchase
