On 12/1/71 SA [REDACTED] contacted [REDACTED]
at
[REDACTED] , in which [REDACTED] has an interest.
[REDACTED] was exhibited two pictures of ALLEN and one each
of BURNWORTH [REDACTED] with seven throw down photographs.
[REDACTED] viewed these pictures from 9:11 pm to 10:12 pm
and eliminated them all.
After the initial viewing, [REDACTED] went back and studied
the pictures of ALLEN 12 times (the old King County Sheriff's Office
photograph No. 61308) and the Washington State Driver's License
picture (expires 9/25/72) three times; the picture of BURNWORTH five times
and that of [REDACTED] times.
He commented that ALLEN's face from the upper lip upwards bore
some resemblance to the unsub; BURNWORTH's jaw line, cheeks and nose
bore some resemblance, and [REDACTED] hairline bore a close
resemblance. He commented the picture of [REDACTED] was "too
severe." He eliminated all three suspects.
