Evidence of Photo-Array Identification Properly Allowed to Counter Inference Line-Up Was Suggestive (Defendant Restrained in Line-Up)

The Second Department determined the identification of the defendant in a photo-array was properly allowed in evidence because the defendant was restrained in the line-up, which could give rise to an inference the line-up was suggestive:

Under the circumstances of this case, the Supreme Court properly allowed the admission of evidence concerning the pretrial photographic identification of the defendant made by one of the two complainants. The evidence elicited at a suppression hearing established that the defendant had to be restrained during the lineup at which the complainants identified him due to his uncooperative behavior. Since the restraint of the defendant during the lineup could give rise to an inference that the lineup was suggestive, and the lineup identification made by the complainants was therefore unreliable, the People were properly permitted to counter this inference by introducing evidence of the prior photographic identification… . People v Adamson, 2015 NY Slip Op 06672, 2nd Dept 8-26-15
