because he did not have notably overlapping front teeth. According to Brown, the man's arguing with a young woman in the Barrowland Ballroom immediately prior to his arrest had greatly raised investigators' concerns, yet this suspect was released from custody, despite the fact he had closely resembled the facial composite and had subsequently supplied police with a false name and address before revealing his true name and address in the Gorbals.
