On your next trip out this way, try the lucrative and exciting pastime of police lineup participant.



Sometimes cops can't find all the fillers they need in jail—there's a limited supply of inmates, and some are either too dangerous to deal with or just don't want to cooperate. In such instances, a detective might look for stand-ins in the county or central city jail; he also might pull in other cops, office workers, or sometimes even people on the street. For example, if Manhattan cops find someone on the street with the right look, they will pay him or her $10 to participate in a lineup.
