Résumé

Lineups conform a procedure for the validation of the testimony given by the eyewitnesses. In those, the eyewitnesses are asked for an identification of the suspect in a line composed for foils and the suspect. It is presumed that they have been able to identify, among a number of other people who share similar physical characteristics, the suspect as the person who has committed the crime in a task absolutely free of bias previous to the election. Thus, This study will analyze how stereotypes or nonverbal behavior of the suspect may skew the correct identifiacion.
