Were the viewings of Howard at the adjourned preliminary examinations so suggestive as to taint the identifications of him at the live lineup?

Four "repo men" were towing a truck from a house at 4:00 a.m. on a morning in June when a man with a rifle on the porch of the house fired a shot, yelling "put the truck down." The repo men disengaged the truck. One called the police as the truck backed out of the driveway. The man on the porch pointed the rifle at the truck and ordered him to put the phone away. As the tow truck moved down the driveway toward the street, the shooter fired four or five more shots, hitting and killing one of the repo men. Two of the repo men described the shooter to the police soon after, and were shown photo arrays that included Frank Howard. Neither one picked him out and one repo man picked a filler. Howard was arrested in September. The preliminary examination, scheduled in September, was twice postponed, and held in October. At each session Howard was brought out of lockup and seated at the defense table. At the first two sessions, it is not clear that any of the witnesses had a significant opportunity to view Howard. At neither proceeding did law enforcement officers say anything to the witnesses to suggest that Howard was the killer. About one hour following the second adjournment, the police conducted a lineup with defense counsel present. Howard was three inches taller than the fillers and was the only suspect with the highfade haircut that the witnesses later said was distinctive. The three surviving repo men were separately asked to identify the killer. After viewing the lineup, each witness was taken to a different room in order to prevent any communication between them. All three picked Howard as the killer. What will be an ideal response?
