    Wrongfully Convicted in New Orleans

    Joseph was a 19-year old kid in New Orleans who was walking down the street with his friends, when a local police officer decided that he matched the description of someone who had committed an armed robbery the previous day. The officer decided to use the most suggestive identification procedure possible, which predictably resulted in Joseph being falsely identified, and facing the prospect of 60-years hard labor.

    I Remember Him from High school

    Imagine walking down the street minding your own business when the police stop you, say you match the description of someone who just committed a serious crime, put you in handcuffs, and present you to a witness in the field. Before you could blink an eye, you have been misidentified and find yourself in a jail cell. The real kicker is, the witness who identified you actually went to high school with you years ago but does not remember you from those days. Rather, he figures that the reason you look familiar is because you’re the culprit.

    Overexposed in San Diego

    Pizzaman Robbery

    A pizza is ordered to be delivered to a vacant apartment in a tough neighborhood, and when the 19-year old deliveryman walks up to the apartment complex he is rushed by two hooded gunmen who demand his money, food and phone. The apartment manager suggests that the police focus their investigation on Marvin, a 20-something year old tenant that she has been having trouble with and wants out of the complex. The only problem is, Marvin had nothing to do with the crime, and after being falsely identified from a suggestive photographic lineup he is thrown into jail and spent the next several months fighting for his freedom.

    Gang Killing in Santa Ana

    Two young gang bangers ride up to a couple of teens ask where they’re from, and when they don’t get the right answer they pull out guns and start shooting. One teen is killed and the other gets away. Johnny Sanchez is a 14-year old kid who lives in the neighborhood and he happens to match the description of one of the shooters, and because Johnny has a friend from school who is in the gang, the police consider him a suspect. Although Johnny had never been in trouble before, they put his picture in a lineup and he is identified as the killer. The only problem is, the lineup was obviously suggestive.

    Purse Snatch 9-Pack

    Two muggers assault an older woman and drag her down the street as she desperately holds onto her purse. The witness describes the main culprit as having long hair and no- tattoos, but after participating in a highly suggestive identification test, she falsely identifies Johnny Smith, a juvenile who is who is covered in tattoos and has short hair. This mistaken identification was then reinforced by the officer, which lead the witness to change her memory to match Johnny, now falsely remembering that the culprit actually had short hair and tattoos.

    Drive by Bicycle Thief

    A hooded gunman on a bicycle rides up to Pedro and Alma, pulls out a silver automatic handgun, and demands their money. The next day, Pedro went out searching for the gunman and found Ronny; a 13-year old African-American boy with a hooded sweatshirt on a bicycle who had never been in trouble with the law, and at that moment decided that Ronny was the culprit. The only problem was, Ronny did not match the description of the gunman they had provided right after the robbery. Over the course of the next few months Pedro and Alma’s memory for the gunman evolved to match Ronny, as they doubled down on their belief that Ronny was the robber.
