Photofit

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Photofit" is a technique used by the police for building up an accurate image of someone to fit a witness's description. Photographs, rather than drawings, of individual features are used to construct an image of a suspect.

  • In the episode Cake Fear of the hit series That's So Raven, the criminal voluntarily built up their own image to an exact replica of a police sketch, and in accordance to television irony, the police thought that that person was not the perpetrator.
