Which identification method presents multiple individuals for witness to identify?

• A. Photo Array
• B. Show-Up
• C. Line-Up
• D. Double Blind Photo Array

Answer: (C)

Lineups involve presenting several individuals at once for the witness to identify. This in-person setup includes the suspect plus fillers who resemble the perpetrator, allowing the witness to compare facial features and mannerisms across a group and choose who they believe committed the crime. A show-up shows only one person, which can bias identification. A photo array uses photographs rather than real people, and a double blind photo array is a photographic method designed to reduce bias by keeping the administrator unaware of which photo is the suspect. Since the question specifies presenting multiple individuals for identification, the lineup is the appropriate method.
