    These pseudo identification systems have been around in police TV shows for 40 years, so of course a nobody in front of a system that says “there is a match” will get excited about it and won’t change his mind. Unless it is a blonde young lady or grey haired old caucasian, the police won’t have second thoughts either. What a fucked up reality
