>into a "6 pack" photo line-up

How did the people in the 6 pack photo line-up match up against the facial recognition? Were they likely matches?

Even worse, the employee who was asked to pick him out of a line up hadn't even witnessed the crime in the first place.

No clue about the likelihood of police using similar facial recognition matches for the rest, but normally the alternates need to be around the same height, build, and complexion as the subject. I would think including multiple potential matches would be a huge no-no simply because your alternates need to be people who you know are not a match. If you just grab the 6 most similar faces and ask the victim to choose, what do you do when they pick the third closest match?

Well you may know some people are not a match because you know where they were, for example pictures could be of people who were incarcerated at the time of the crime.
