LOL.
Seriously, facial recognition technology is mostly trash still. Especially at the level of resolution we're looking at here. Maybe narrows the pool a bit, but that's about it.
It's hard enough making a match when you have a clear hi-resolution shot to match up against another clear hi-resolution shot.
Just look at the guy on here that reverse Google image searches random old-timey photos to claim they are Cy Young, Joe Jackson, Cap Anson, Josh Gibson, Jim Thorpe, etc., etc., etc...
Maybe they get lucky and get a hit on one of the look-outs with the hats, and they turn on the bag man with the big hat, glasses, facial hair and blurry tattoos.
I think it's going to have to be just good old fashioned following the trail of evidence and hoping somebody f*%ks up along the way.
