Preferred term

elimination lineup  

Definition

  • A police lineup procedure originally designed for children, but also suitable for use with adolescents and adults. The witness first participates in a simultaneous lineup in which he or she is asked to select the individual who most resembles the perpetrator. The other members of the lineup are then discarded and the witness is asked to compare the selected suspect with his or her memory of the perpetrator and to indicate whether this person is the perpetrator.
