Transcript

Ladies and gentlemen, we take you now behind the scenes of a police headquarters in a great American city For under the cold glaring lights will pass before us the innocent the vagrant the thief the murderer We take you now to police line up. Can I sit here sure any chair in the room at home?

You'll sit beside me lieutenant cut three sure I I hope I didn't do wrong about that boy, Lieutenant, but I'm pretty sure there was a bullet hole in that coat. You did just right. Like the other people here, you've all come to try to identify someone in the lineup for one reason or another.

May I have your attention, please? That's Sergeant Grab and charge the lineup. He'll explain it to you. You people out there on the other side of the wire in the audience room, may I have your attention, please?

Thank you. My name is Greg, Sergeant Matt Greb. I will explain the line up to you. Each and the suspects you will see will be numbered. I call off a number, their name and charge. If you have any questions or identifications, please remember the number assigned to the prisoner, as I call his name. At the end of each line, when I ask for questions or identifications, call out the

number. If you are sure or are not too sure the suspect had him held. The officers who took your name will assist you. They are seated among you. Please be prompted with your questions or identification.

You're telling them to show them to him? I have to apply to the legs. When the prisoners leave here, they're sent to the bathroom and dressed back into their jail clothes. It makes it quite difficult to bring them back after they leave here. The questions I ask these suspects are merely to get a natural tone of voice, so do not pay too much attention
