Ladies and gentlemen, we take you now behind the scenes of a police headquarters in a great American city Or under the cold glaring lights will pass before us the innocent the vagrant the thief the murderer We take you now to the lineup That what a fine oh we want you and mr. Bush to do was identifying yeah sit down here
Where do I sit with him right next to me? Oh, yes I said to myself, Mr. Bush, there's a face you'll never forget. Oh, those hit and run drivers, I took them. Not a hit and run driver, Mr. Bush.
The driver of that car was a murder. Hey, I have your attention, please. Premeditated. You people out there on the other side of the wire, may I have your attention, please? Thank you. My name is Grab Sergeant Matt Grab.
I'll explain the line up to you. Each of the suspects you will see will be numbered. I'll call off a number, their names and charge. If you have any identifications, please remember the number assigned to the prisoner as I call his name.
At the end of the line when I call for questions or identifications, call out the number. If you're sure or not too sure of the suspect, have him held. The officers who took your name will assist you there seated among you.
Please be propped with your questions or identification. If he had the face of a killer, a real mean state. When the address is long as you remember what he looks like. Remember, the number of the men who are expected to their jail closed.
It makes it quite difficult to bring them back after they leave here. The questions I ask these suspects immediately to get a natural tonal voice, so do not pay too much attention to their answers as they often lie. Bring on the line.
