What is shown during a show-up identification procedure?

In a show-up identification procedure, the primary focus is on presenting only the suspect to the witness or victim shortly after a crime has occurred. This method allows for a quick assessment of the suspect's potential involvement by the witness. The goal of this type of identification is to establish a connection between the suspect and the crime in a streamlined manner without multiple variables that could lead to confusion or misidentification. Presenting the suspect alone minimizes the risk of bias that could arise from the presence of other individuals. This process is often conducted in close proximity to the incident, which helps to enhance the reliability of the witness's identification.
