Isn't it [the photo array] illegal?
It may be illegal, but it is probably not criminal for a DA to direct the investigators to conduct such a lineup.

Peripheral charges connected to the arrangement of the array and other acts, such as conspiracy, civil rights violations and obstruction, would be criminal. In other words, the whole photo line-up thingy could be part of cumulative evidence of a crime rather than a crime itself (which it would not be - you are correct).

Okay, maybe not illegal, but unethical as hell.
