Eyewitness Identification Reform In Massachusetts, Stanley Z. Fisher
Faculty Scholarship
This article traces the impact of the new scientific learning upon police eyewitness identification procedures in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

The decision how to investigate crime rests principally with the police chief responsible for each department.
