(b) An in person witness identification described in subsection (a) shall be recorded by video, unless a law enforcement recording device is not available to the officer and recording is otherwise not practicable under the circumstances. (c) Failure to comply with the requirements of this section is admissible to support a claim of eyewitness misidentification, if the evidence is not otherwise inadmissible.
