Eyewitness Identification: Conducting a Photo Lineup Online

The process of eyewitness identification must follow specific procedures in order to produce fair and accurate results. Participants in this online training will learn how to construct and administer photographic lineups following the policy recommendations of the Arkansas Association of Chiefs of Police. A law enforcement agency that implements the Arkansas Model Policy on Eyewitness Identification increases the chances that guilty perpetrators will be identified, while reducing the chances that innocent persons will be identified; improves the strength of cases in court; and protects itself and its officers from accusations of wrongdoing.
