In 1984, an intruder broke into the home of Jennifer Thompson, a 22-year-old student, and sexually assaulted her. In the initial stages of the subsequent investigation, the police showed Jennifer a photo array of men matching the description she gave of the intruder. She chose a photo of Ronald Cotton and identified him as the assailant. At a later point in the investigation, Jennifer identified Ronald Cotton as her attacker a second time by choosing him from a lineup. Mr. Cotton spent 11 years in prison before DNA testing proved that someone else, a man named Bobby Poole, had actually attacked Jennifer. Although correct procedures were followed in the investigation, a combination of several factors led to Jennifer's confident and persuasive testimony during Ronald Cotton's trial. Which of the following presents a scenario where positive feedback could have impacted Jennifer's identification of her assailant? a. Jennifer was given only ten minutes to identify her attacker from the lineup. b. Jennifer was shown several photos simultaneously rather than a sequence of photos. c. Jennifer was not informed that her attacker might not be in the lineup. d. Officers told Jennifer that the man she identified in the photo array had been involved in other breaking-and-entering crimes.
