• noting that “[n]either the Federal Rules of Evidence nor the Sixth Amendment’s Confrontation Clause apply with full force in a revocation proceeding”
• photo array was unduly suggestive where witness described perpetrator as having a large neck tattoo and defendant was only person shown with a neck tattoo
• “[A] revocation proceeding cannot be equated with a criminal prosecution in any sense. Because the defendant already stands convicted of a crime, the government is not put to the burden of an adversarial criminal trial.” (internal quotation marks and citation omitted)
