What is the case law on eye-witness identification in sexual assault cases?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Hill v. United States, 401 F.2d 995 (9th Cir. 1968):
We are satisfied that the evidence was sufficient to support appellant's conviction under 18 U.S.C. 2113 (a) and (d). We are also satisfied that the pretrial identification of appellant by means of photographs was not so suggestive or conducive to misidentification that the eye-witness identifications of appellant at trial (to which appellant did not object) should have been stricken under the standards established in Simmons v. United States, 390 U.S. 377,
[401 F.2d 996]
383-384, 88 S.Ct. 967, 19 L.Ed.2d 1247 (1968).[401 F.2d 996]
