“'suggest to an identifying witness that [that person] was more likely to be the culprit'”
6 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. State v. Castor · Bernal v. People“Where the pretrial identification procedures used with a given witness have been impermissibly suggestive, a later in-court identification by that witness will violate due process unless the in-court identification is shown to have reliability independent of those procedures .... On the other hand, if the procedures were not impermissibly suggestive, independent reliability is not a constitutionally required condition of admissibility, ... and the reliability of the identification is simply a question for the jury.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the majority“police suggestiveness does not require the suppression of an identification if the witness was not thereby influenced, as, for example, when the witness's identification was already positive.”
