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)

A lineup is the procedure where several individuals are presented to the witness at once, allowing the witness to pick out who they saw. This directly matches the idea of presenting multiple people for identification—the witness has multiple options to choose from in one session, typically including the actual suspect and fillers to prevent bias.

A show-up, by contrast, presents only a single person, offering no multiple options. A photo array provides multiple individuals as photographs, but in a different format (photos rather than an in-person lineup). A double blind photo array is a variation of a photo array designed to reduce bias by ensuring the administrator doesn’t know which photo is the suspect; it still uses photos rather than an in-person lineup. Thus, the lineup best fits the description of presenting multiple individuals for identification.
