How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- applying Biggers factors to conclude a suggestive show-up identification—where the suspect was presented alone and handcuffed at the scene of the crime approximately thirty minutes after the witnesses’ initial encounter—was nevertheless reliable
- accepting the government’s concession that a show-up identification was unduly suggestive
- central issue is “whether under the totality of the circumstances the identification was unreliable”
- state conceded procedure was unnecessarily suggestive
