How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• noting that in-person show-ups are inherently suggestive but reserving the question-of whether a photographic show-up presents the same problem
• holding single photographic \show-up\ was necessary when armed felon at large as police \could not have produced a significantly less suggestive procedure without sacrificing critical time\
• noting that just because “[t]he jury might not have possessed all the information [the defendant] wanted it to have” does not mean that the jury lacked “sufficient information to evaluate [the witness’s] testimony”
• stating that Congress used term “crime of vi- olence” consistently throughout criminal code
• noting that exigent circumstances might justify a photo show-up when an armed suspect is on the loose, clues point to a particular suspect, and the show-up occurs within a few hours of. the crime
• assuming that two-photo array was suggestive
