This really f*cks me off...
Suspect beats up someone. Suspect is arrested shortly afterwards on evidence received (sadly not identified by someone who knows him) and totally denies involvement during initial IAC.
Suspect told no problem, consent to ID procedures (in this case video identification) and we can clear this up if it wasn't you. Suspect refuses.
According to the codes I've now got to either:
Group or video ID
or worst case confrontation.
All of these of course completely impractical in:
a. dealing with host nation witnesses.
b. suspect on operations.
Why the f*ck should we bend over backwards for a suspect that doesn't want to clear himself? Why shouldn't I just get to go straight to a photo array for instance? The suspect has been given every opportunity to use the most reliable methods of eliminating himself from an inquiry. Why if he chooses not to take up this kind offer should we have to get f*cked around to accommodate him? It's f*cking b*llocks!
Rant over... sorry the subject matter is so monkey / lawyer specific but the clue is in the title...
