1. ““Perhaps as important to our decision as the absence of a deliberate attempt to prejudice is the fact that the ‘door way’ was first opened by the defense. The defense on cross examination established that the police officers carried Bayer’s picture in a group with several others and showed them to victims of armed robberies. When this file was eventually and inadvertently referred to as a ‘mug file’, it was not a startling revelation of a new and material fact. “Lack of intent to prejudice, other strong evidence of guilt, and the fact that the subject of photographs originated with Bayer, all combine to minimize prejudice to Bayer.””
