Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)
1. A suspect is to be granted the right to counsel at any “critical stage” of the criminal process. 2. One common practice the court condemned in United States v. Wade was that of shining a slightly brighter light on the suspect than the other individuals in a lineup as a means of influencing the process. 3. Due to the inherently intimidating nature of a lineup, prosecutors must provide extra proof at trial that a defendant waived his/her right to counsel at this stage in the process. 4.

The U.S. Supreme Court has held that the right to counsel does not apply to lineups conducted during the investigative stage (preindictment) due to the inherent inefficiency of an attorney’s presence.
