Eyewitness Identification

Sets statewide rules for police lineups to make eyewitness IDs more reliable. Officers must record the witness's first description, have evidence to include a suspect and can't rely only on facial recognition. Lineups must use similar non-suspects, be run by neutral methods, and are favored over show-ups or first-time in-court IDs. Witnesses get standard instructions and must state confidence. All procedures are audio/video recorded. Lawyers may observe. Aims to cut bad IDs and wrongful convictions.
