“It is the likelihood of misidentification that taints the out of court identification process. In determining whether an in court identification is tainted by pretrial occurrences, we consider the totality of the circumstances. In doing so, we consider the opportunity of the identifying witness to observe the accused at the time of the criminal act; the lapse of time between the occurrences and the identification; any inconsistencies of the description given by the witness; whether there was prior misidentification; the facts surrounding the identification; and all matters relating to the identification process. Mayes v. State, 264 Ark. 283 , 571 S.W.2d 420 (1978). We have stated reliability is the linchpin in determining the admissibility of identification testimony.
