OK. That is a criminal action. The penalty for it MUST be the same as an innocent man would have gotten. No exceptions. Being a cop makes it worse: sworn to protect and to serve.

I don’t care if this guy is a career criminal- He should sue their asses off for this (and win)

Legal experts were a bit taken aback that police would do something that seems only likely to increase the likelihood of a wrongful conviction.

Had he gotten the tattoos recently, or had they been there long before the robberies?

Relevant questions are rayciss, of course.

The police department there should be greatly punished and immediately let this man freely walk out that door with millions of dollars in his pockets.

As long as the cops are really sure that the guy is guilty, I don’t see the problem.

So this is the next step in police corruption. Make the evidence fit the crime and the person.

This is why witness ID’s are not totally reliable. This guy is being framed just to get a conviction. If he has tattoo’s already then he could not be the robber.

The job of the police isn’t to protect you. It’s to catch as many criminals as they possibly can, even if they can frame you for it. That’s something liberals should consider if they also think only the police should carry guns.

The accused cold have used makeup to cover them up during the crime spree in order to hamper identification.

That’s a dick move by the cops for two reasons. One, they’re setting this guy up to take a fall for a crime he almost certainly did not commit. I’m pretty sure someone would’ve remembered and mentioned the ink. Two, they are expending all this time and energy on something they know is not actually bringing the real criminal to justice. Hey, there’s an armed robber running around out there and they are intentionally not going after him? Fire and prosecute.

Law Enforcement should not look to Comey, McCabe, Strozk, Brennan and Clapper for exemplary moral leadership.

I was mugged a few years ago, and picked the wrong guy out of the lineup.

The guy I pointed out, #2, was actually a cop.
He had same complexion & build.
The sarge in charge had pulled him off desk duty & made him
put on the perp’s clothes & sneakers.
The perp was #3, but was wearing another guy’s clothes.

So, yeah, they do stuff like that.

I thought it was common practice to cover tattoos in line up photos so witnesses don’t focus on them.
Not booking photos but photos used for witness id.
