Eyewitness ID was the subject on Talk Of The Nation on NPR yesterday.
Also from yesterday, the NYT continues to be all over this topic: Police Lineups Start to Face Fact: Eyes Can Lie.
Finally, www.eyeid.org is a comprehensive defense resource for litigating eyewitness ID issues. There's even a member area for public defenders where you can get access to briefs and loads of other helpful stuff. (thanks to Sara Snyder for forwarding the site)
